Pros:

Our room was the perfect spot from which to feel immersed in a stormy night from dry comfort. Stocking up on "comfort food" couldn't have been more convenient with the grocery shop across the street. The hotel is central, while at the same time feeling at the edge of the world.

Cons:

All was good.

Unwelcoming attitude and zero assistance
Pros:

Non

Cons:

Staff was crude - asked about the parking lot which has cone “reserving” and since we are guests. The answer was there must be a reason why the cones are there. And the reception gave us the room that is most extreme end of the corridor. Take note - no elevator so you are expected to carry your own luggage up. Dont think they should termed themselves as Hotel.
