Hotel with a GREAT View Could Use Some TLC

The hotel has a great view of the harbor which is so lovely! The hotel could be so much more charming just by simplifying the hodge-podge and sprucing it up a bit, it does have character. The rooms had some issues like very old carpet, mildew in the bathroom, the bathroom fan sounded like a 747, and the beds were not very comfortable. The manager so kindly accommodated the booking error with twin beds instead of a double bed.

Convenient location, decent breakfast, the room was clean. Building needs serious updating. The blackout window roll was broken, wouldn’t stay down. The room was quite hot, no a/c and we could not open the window.

Average

The hotel is a bit tired. No smiles on reception and the breakfast start times are far too late for anyone that wants to have an early start. Food quality average, restaurant service was good.

One of our rooms was not clean, particularly the bathroom. The beds were not comfortable, and it was overall clear that this hotel has been given minimum required maintenance for some time, rather than true upkeep. There was screaming and fighting in the hotel courtyard until 1 am when management was able to quiet the individuals involved. This hotel may have been adequate were we not led to have higher expectations. We left early despite being charged for 2 nights.

Room was nice enough - nothing fancy, but the beds were comfortable enough and the window opened very large (great during the heat wave). Shower was not the best - the hose is not really movable, and the temperature seemed to vary easily. Breakfast buffet, including hot food, was included, which was great to have, though it was not amazing food. Parking can be limited, but reception was able to provide alternatives if the lot and street parking were full - overall, no issue with parking. There is an attached bar that was enjoyable.

Overnight pre-ferry

Perfect for an overnight stay en route to the ferry. Has a public and hotel bar and short walk to a few other options.
