Uneven experience. Some drawbacks
nice staffobstructed viewslow breakfast
the staff were nice enough, i suppose.
I paid extra for a 'sea view room', though the scaffolding outside blocked most of it. The hotel said the scaffolding would probably be gone by the time i arrived, but alas, it was not. the room itself felt a bit tired, it needed some tlc, and the breakfast service was quite slow one morning. i think they were a bit understaffed. It happens, but still, annoying.

wonderful coastal stay
fresh linenclean towelshot watersea view
the room had fresh, clean linen and towels. very hot water (which i always appreciate). breakfast included yogurt and fresh fruit. i especially liked the scrambled eggs, seasoned with chives. i found the staff cute and they upgraded my room to one with a sea view, which i greatly enjoyed.
the dinner menu was somewhat fish heavy, though the food i had was tasty.

great locationfriendly staffclean buildinglimited menuundercooked sausagesabsent items
the location provides easy access to the harbour. i found the staff to be friendly. the building had a beautiful, well-kept, and clean appearance.
the evening meal menu was a little limited. my breakfast included sausages that, while tasty, looked a little undercooked. i noticed the absence of baked beans and hash browns at breakfast.
