Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a wonderful location with a beautiful view of the sea. It's a fantastic place to stay, with rooms simply furnished but offering a great view out the front. The service was a mix of brusque and rude encounters with some helpful and nice interactions. The location is convenient, close to the ferry terminal and local amenities. The dining experience was a bit confusing but manageable. Overall, a stay with ups and downs.
The hotel provides all the necessary amenities in the rooms, like a toaster, kettle, plates, and glasses, making it convenient for a longer stay. While the rear location might not offer a great view, it didn't impact my overall experience. The property shows signs of age but doesn't affect the stay negatively. The 8-day stay was comfortable and satisfactory.
This hotel is situated in an awesome place with table and chairs to sit on and enjoy the view. The rooms met our needs, but it's not the most well-trained service. The staff is friendly but lacks in-depth knowledge. The location has a nice view and is close to town businesses; however, it's not central, making it a long trip to visit attractions on the western side of the island. The dining is okay, but definitely not worth the high price for limited variety. The facilities are adequate. Overall, it's a comfortable stay with some room for improvement in service and dining.
