the free parking behind the building suited my requirements perfectly.
I found the room rather small. the layout made it difficult to move around freely. the television remote did not work. I requested a replacement. this request was not fulfilled . i consider this unacceptable.

Really good Hospitality and Prime Location

The hosts were friendly and accommodating I received fresh towels daily. A selection of teas plus hot chocolate were available in my room I also found it lovely. Breakfast featured quality local butcher products.

Decent Stay with a Few Minor Issues
comfortable roomample toiletriesgood locationshower room odorbulky bedunhygienic mat
The room was comfortable, and it had a mini fridge which was convenient. I also appreciated the ample supply of toiletries provided in the bathroom. The location was really good for reaching restaurants and bars.
The shower room had a slight odor. The bed felt quite bulky in the room. I also didn't care for the shower slip mat. It seemed unhygienic (I prefer not to use them).

Wonderful Visit!
handy co-opcomfortable bedlovely viewshower mat
The location is great. It is just a short walk to the harbour. A handy co-op is also at the bottom of the road. The bed was super comfortable. My room was bright, airy, and quiet. I had a lovely view of the park. Chris helped me a lot with parking. He was very polite.
I found a shower slip mat in the shower. I did not like it. It collects germs and I didn't want to stand on it. The shower room and toilet also smelt of urine.

I found convenient free parking at the rear of the hotel. The location felt very central, quite close to many attractions. This helped with easy exploration. The breakfast impressed me greatly, it was varied and satisfying. The room included nice toiletries, a fan, and a useful mini fridge. These added to my comfort.
