Highlights
Could Improve
Mostly described as clean and 'spotlessly clean' in several reviews, though a few guests reported mould on tiles and a leaking shower requiring mopping.
Staff repeatedly praised as friendly, helpful, welcoming and efficient; many comments highlight excellent, attentive service.
Consistently lauded as 'great', central, excellent for ferry/quay and shops; location is a standout strength across reviews.
Rooms frequently described as small, old, tired or shabby; several guests reported overheating due to no AC and some maintenance issues (mould, leaking shower).
Garden and outdoor areas praised; however lack of air conditioning, only fans provided, and parking is an extra paid charge were noted as drawbacks.
Mixed feedback on value: some felt price was high for room condition and breakfast quality, while others found stays satisfactory for their needs.
Breakfast was frequently described as lovely or excellent, though a few guests found the continental selection lacking (no cheese/meat) or average on occasion.
Many guests would return, citing characterful building, great location and friendly staff; heat in rooms and some worn aspects tempered overall impressions.
