great selectionshort walk
The location was EXCELLENT for exploring local attractions. It was a short walk to many points of interest. Breakfast was also a highlight. The food offered a tasty and great selection!
The swimming pool signage was a bit lacking, though I eventually found it in the attached gym.

Satisfactory Stay
convenient locationfriendly staffsmall bedroom
The location is convenient for accessing ferries and shopping areas. The room was very clean and the hotel accommodated my dog well. Fast and efficient check-in was appreciated and the staff was friendly. The breakfast offered was tasty and a good value.
I found that the downstairs public areas looked recently restyled. The bedroom was pretty small and somewhat dated. There was only one power socket on one side of the bed. I also experienced very poor shower pressure.
Facilities
9/10
The hotel has a pool, a bar and a restaurant. There is also air conditioning in the rooms, a plus for the warmer months, and breakfast offers a good variety of options for every palate.
Service

The staff was polite and efficient and seemed cheerful. They provided daily servicing of the room, ensuring it was kept clean. They were also helpful in retrieving a Kindle I accidentally left behind, offering peace of mind.
