Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers excellent service with a gluten-free meal option for celiacs and friendly staff. The rooms are a good size with a big comfortable bed but are a bit dated and shabby. The location is outstanding, overlooking the harbor and perfect for exploring the area. The dining experience is exceptional with a hearty breakfast feast and a variety of options.
I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The room with a great little window seat overlooking the harbor was lovely, and the top-class breakfast made me eager to return. The only downside was the unexpected noise that sounded like a hammer drill being used in the room.
My stay at the hotel was truly delightful. The rooms were spacious, clean, and equipped with everything I needed. The service was top-notch, and the location was breathtaking with a view of the harbor. The dining experience was a pleasant surprise, offering a variety of delicious options. The facilities were enjoyable, making my stay even more comfortable.
