Would stay again
Pros:

Excellent location, unbeatable really, and I do love the harbour view. The staff are friendly and very efficient and the place is spotlessly clean

Decent hotel in a great location
Pros:

Good location and useful being able to use the nearby gym

Cons:

The pillows were surprisingly poor quality.

It would have been useful to know that the gym’s showers had no soap dispensers!
