I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were vintage-style but clean and spacious, although the outside bars caused a lot of noise until late at night. The service was helpful overall. The location was fantastic, facing the old harbor and just a short walk to the town center. The dining options were good but slightly overpriced.

The hotel had a great view overlooking the harbor, and despite the noise from the outside bars until late at night, the cleanliness of the rooms made my stay comfortable. Check-in was easy, and the staff were helpful and pleasant, even though there were some issues with resolving problems. The location right on the harbor front was amazing, but it could be a bit challenging to find at night. The dining experience overlooking the pool was good value, although there could have been more menu options. Overall, a mixed experience with some positives and negatives.

The hotel was clean and tidy but didn't have a boiler or a fridge in the room. The location was good, right over an alley way with a bar, which could be noisy at times. The service was friendly and helpful, but didn't go the extra mile considering the slightly higher price compared to other options. The dining experience was enjoyable in a lovely room with harbor views, despite running out of hot food on some days.
