Loved the ambience but lack of sleep had its impact

We loved it although alterations on the ground floor made it a little uninviting

Cons:

A very noisy group next door kept us awake until after 1.30am

Quirky small hotel in the center of town
Pros:

The room was quite quirkily and interestingly decorated, as well as being spacious. The hotel is very well located in the center of town. The staff were pleasant and helpful.

Cons:

We were not informed that the restaurant would be closed for renovations during our stay, causing some inconvenience and construction mess in the hotel.

Great hotel in the centre of town.
Pros:

Great location. Beautiful building and a very quirky room. Loved the decor. As an old building it was so quiet which was perfect for a Saturday night. The complimentary port was a hoot. Not our drink of choice but we had a wee one.

Cons:

The toilet paper.

Beautiful hotel and great staff

This will be a beautiful space once they have finished all the construction. Meanwhile, it was very comfortable and very much appreciated the most hospitable staff.

There was construction, and it was a little difficult to find parking

Reasonable value for your money
Pros:

Location and the odd building. Further as breakfast was not included that they had suggestions for cafes and coffee right next door.

Cons:

A lot of seagulls outside the window screaming so that you woke up early in the morning.

Nice hotel, could do with a restaurant.
Pros:

Fantastic hotel rooms, decor and staff.

Cons:

The restaurant has closed down and the town itself is a bit of a ghost town, very few good quality places to eat in the town itself, although the nearby vineyards have lovely restaurants.
