the worst room i have even had during my years of travelling around the world, my view was looking into a dirty painted outside wall 3 metres from the window the sky was only visible buy looking up , resulting in no view which made the room dark. Maybe acceptable for a night but I was staying for 7 nights. Great breakfast and friendly staff

Hotel is in a great location. Within walking distance to the harbour and tram station. Staff all very cheery and helpful. Reception area very tidy and functional. Rooms are a bit of a disappointment. Clean but very dark and dated. Maybe would be better with a room that was sun facing. Breakfast was very nice.

Hotel was in a great location walkable to the fish market, restaurants and the train station. Helpful staff and excellent breakfast. Small refrigerator in the room was a plus. On the negative side the rooms were very small, hot and the hotel is on a busy corner so too loud to open the windows at night.
