great locationbar areagood selectionparking chargemucky carpetunclean throw

The hotel has a great location within walking distance to the harbor. I enjoyed the restaurant and bar area. The continental breakfast included a really good selection.

The hotel charged £10 per day for parking, a detail I found penny-pinching considering the expensive rooms. The stair carpet down to the garden rooms looked mucky. The throw on the bed did not look very clean.
