We were in a deluxe double suite, it was very spacious. Although we arrived at 12 noon, we didn’t get our room until right at check in time of 3pm, I asked the reception to ask if they would check to see if it was cleaned yet and just kept getting the canned answer “check in time is at 3pm”. Breakfast was very nice.

I would recommend this hotel, especially before a cruise. Two blocks from main shops and restaurants and coffee shops. Stay was friendly and accommodating for our needs. Helped recommend dining options and arrange cab to cruise port. Property and rooms were clean. Rooms were normal European small. One of the best parts was the breakfast. It was fantastic.
