an okay stay

room view great location high price no bacon
the room was amazing. it was spacious and light. the room also had a warm and lovely view over the harbor. the location was great, slightly out of the busiest areas.
i paid a high price for the room for one night. it was a family room for four, but there were only two of us. at breakfast, i chose a full english, but there was no bacon. i was told there was no bacon left even though it was only 9:30 am.

mixed feelings about this stay

loud music peeling paint
the location was acceptable, placing me conveniently near key attractions.
The noise levels were unacceptable. Loud music from the bar persisted late into the night. additionally, early morning noise from staff moving furniture disrupted sleep. the room decor was poor, with peeling paint on the walls a clear sign of needed maintenance.
