great seagate room

ensuite bath quay view pub food
i stayed in the seagate room. i found the room with ensuite bath to be large and very clean. it had a good view of the quay. the food in the pub was on par with the nice accommodations above.
i found the mattress to be very soft and creaky. it was not really comfortable. i also noticed that if you want a cooked breakfast, it is only available late.
