Room was spotless, nothing was to much trouble for the staff, breakfasts were very good with traditional and vegan options available, staff were kind and attentive. Excellent restaurant called Racks next door.
Daniel upgraded me to a ensuite which was better. The breakfast was great. Good location & fairly cheap. Definately recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
The reception staff and breakfast staff were excellent. Courteous and helpful and really friendly. Location of the hotel is good for walking down to the harbour and the city centre. Plenty of good restaurants nearby.
Hotel was quiet and we had a good night’s sleep.
Very convenient and good value for location. I only needed a small room for myself for one night so happy to be able to book a single for less money than having to book a double.
