Harbour View Highlight

harbour viewcoffee facilitiesroomy showereasy access
The view from the room was directly over the harbour I found it captivating. The room offered tea and coffee making facilities including real coffee which was a great addition. The shower had ample room and was easy to use I did appreciate that. The location allowed easy access to restaurants and cafes nearby so I could explore the local dining options.
The bathroom was a bit small I would say.
