Breakfast was good. Very old and dated hotel in need of a revamp. Beds were lovely and ideal location. Just needs a renovation. Bathrooms and carpets pretty ordinary

Great room, quality linnen and towels, great service
Excellent location next to the waterfront and shops, restaurants and bars. Breakfast buffet is with it for value. Check in a bit slow, rooms tidy and services daily. Would recommend.
