Harbor views and happy stays
efficient staffgood menuhandmade chocolatesbig bath
The staff were efficient and friendly, with great knowledge of the local area, nothing was too much trouble. The restaurant provided great food, with a good menu. I savored the handmade chocolates and the coastal walk was only 5 minutes away. I also enjoyed a big bath after all the sightseeing.
The breakfast could use slight improvement.

The food was AMAZING!!! I enjoyed the great range of specialist beers on tap. The location on the harbour is ideal, a romantic setting.
The bed was a little too soft for my liking.

convenient locationsingle bread typebitter coffee
the location was convenient, near the harbor.
the breakfast was a letdown. there was only one type of bread and the waitress could not confirm if it contained seeds. i have a serious allergy, so i couldn't risk eating it (i felt really restricted). also, the coffee tasted bitter.
