Great location and friendly/amazing staff. No elevator in the exterior building where out room was so if you have a lot of gear or have acccessibility requirements, note this barrier. The rooms right across from the main street can hear all the rowdy sounds from the bars and restaurant patios across the street. But during the low season, the noise died down early enough. Note for light sleepers. Otherwise, had excellent sleep.

Good sized room. The shiwer head needed to be replaced as some holes were blocked so water flow wasn't good but other than that, pretty happy.

We had room 112, outside the window were what I think are Air Con motors, the noise was unbearable, this meant a totally sleepless night for myself and my wife.These rooms should be booked out last, especially when the hotel wasnt full.We booked weeks ago and should have been advised of the noise.
