"Good basic 4 star hotel, as a base with a pool and breakfast it was fine for us. As long as a little tired decor doesn’t trigger you you’ll be great. Location is fantastic with a small park next door, shopping centre 5mins walk away and dozens of bars and restaurants nearby."

"Charming guesthouse, staff were friendly and helpful. In a great location within a couple minutes of the waterfront and restaurants. It’s an older building so don’t expect anything fancy but the room was comfortable and clean."
