Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were small but very cozy with a lovely view of the harbor, though cleanliness was an issue at times. The location was just what we wanted, with outstanding sea views and good access to pubs and restaurants. However, the dining experience left much to be desired with slow service and subpar quality. The facilities were decent, but room for improvement remains.
I had a perfect stay with stunning views over the sea, although noise near the reception was a downside. The service was exceptional, especially from Janet and Lara. The location was ideal, overlooking the harbor, but there were some issues with noise complaints. The dining experience was lovely with a varied breakfast. Overall, a great value for money with a few minor inconveniences.
The hotel offers cozy and inviting cabin-like rooms, but they were a bit small to be called double rooms. The service was efficient and charming, with staff going the extra mile. The location boasts excellent seafront views with quirky shops and cafes nearby, although dining options were a bit overpriced. The facilities were welcoming and topped off our stay nicely.
