The room was very clean and has everything you need, offered hair dryers. Staff was very helpful and patient with a lot of cruise passengers and luggage arrangements, which they have an area to hold for you. Staff arranged taxi service. Dinner options were great and resonable.

I stayed one night pre-cruise, and I couldn't hsve asked for a better experience. In the months proor to ny arrival, they answered my questions and accomodated my requests. They reached out ahead of time to schedule dinner reservations too. Upon arrival the staff was super friendly and helpful. They took care of everything, breakfast was scheduled, a taxi was scheduled, and the room was on the ground floor as requested, I loved jt and will stay there again if I am ever back in Southampton.

Great location before our cruise. Room was smaller than expected for a king. Claw foot bathtub and no shower curtain. Challenging to take a shower, so had to just kneel in the tub. The hotel was cute, but more like being in someone’s house in a bedroom.

Tammy

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This property is nice, the staff was excellent and the breakfast yummy. The reason for my low rating was the room we had was terrible. Do not accept room number 25. It’s a double twin. It is the size of a dorm room with an accessible bathroom- we did not request an accessible room. It needs to painted, it needs new carpet and the carpet isn’t properly placed. The beds are a bit lumpy and the pillows are flat. We were only staying one night so we didn’t request a change in room but I would not stay in that room again.
