We got a room with a Jacuzzi bath. Had a microwave, central heating, and an iron. The staff that checked us in was amicable. It was in a central location, near the harbour area;))

The hotel staff was not very friendly.

The location of this place, which is very close to the town center, was fantastic, and I had a very pleasant stay for a night, overlooking a property just 3 km from the public gardens.

Friendly staff, beautiful quiet room, ultra comfy bed.

Website says its a private balcony which we booked but was a balcony on a shared through fare which was disappointing as specifically asked in my booking about the private balcony. If you say something you should provide it.
