The breakfast included a variety of options. the location felt wonderful near the historical dockyard and shopping. the room had a comfortable bed with soft bedding. the staff are helpful. They found a better room for us when we asked.

erratic shower street traffic
The room felt smaller than expected. the shower temperature was erratic. It alternated between scalding hot and freezing cold without warning, causing annoyance. i also noticed the noise level from nearby street traffic was higher than is acceptable. It disrupted sleep. the provided earplugs didn't do much to block it out.
