The cleanliness of this hotel IMPRESSED me. The sheets and pillows felt so soft. The gluten-free breakfast option was a HUGE plus. The location provides easy access to town. It's only a short walk.

The room service schedule was not clear, i needed to request refills for basic supplies. the room size was smaller than expected given the price. i also found the walk into town longer than described. It felt more like fifteen to twenty minutes.

the breakfast was good for us.
Room service was infrequent. It only happened every other day. we weren't informed about this upfront. a bigger room would have been better for the price and i didn't like being on the second floor. the lanes leading up to the place was difficult.

The rooms were clean, quiet, and spacious with all the necessary amenities. I could see the port from the room, and it was a nice addition. There was a great selection of breakfast options like pancakes and full English breakfast. I enjoyed the generous portions of food. Everything tasted great.
I expected a bigger room for the price I paid. I didn't realize I was on the second floor, up four flights of stairs. I kept stooping to avoid hitting my head on the ceiling.
