We got what we needed from the hotel. The location was great and it had attached parking. Pay attention to their details on how to get to the parking. Google and/or Apple will NOT get you there. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. The rooms are in need of a remodel though. Carpet is never good and this carpet was badly in need of replacement. The bathtub/shower is an accident waiting to happen. Overall, it worked for us.

The room was clean and comfortable. I booked/arrived late at night due to a cancelled flight. The staff were very welcoming and considerate. A member of staff, (tall, red hair, beard) was very obliging with arranging food and catering for my allergy.

The property is in an ideal location for the centre of the city. It is clean and the staff are very nice. I would recommend to stay here especially if you have a car.

The room was small and quite tired. No air conditioning or space to put away clothes. It had been renovated in a quirky way which didnt always work well. Quite expensive but an easy walk to the town centre and harbour area.
