A meticulously clean old building and friendly staff.
Pros:

Although a bit tired (which is expected for an old building like this) our room and the common space we were passing through were absolutely meticulously clean!

The breakfast was absolutely delicious - there was a healthy fruits/yogurt/cereal options, as well as a proper English breakfast, made to order!

Even more - our bed was soft and comfortable; complimentary biscuits, teas and coffees (decaf option as well); the shower was spotless and with plenty of hot water; there were enough toiletries; there were enough parking spaces and parking was easy; staff was helpful; the hotel felt very secure (unlocking three doors before reaching our room)…

Cons:

There were just two pubs nearby and they closed at 10:30-11pm on Saturday - nothing else in a walking distance.

Hotel better than expected! ALL staff were very helpful, comfortable room & outstanding food
Pros:

This hotel was actually better than expected! ALL staff were very helpful and friendly, room was comfortable - and both dinner and breakfast was outstanding. All food tasty & fresh.

Cons:

About 20-mins walk to the Harbour, but no big deal as it's mostly along the seafront

Excellent hotel, great location and solid service too
Pros:

Very friendly personnel on reception. There was a fast service there and also a good one in the restaurant for breakfast. The English breakfast was lovely too! Facilities and the comfort level were also very satisfactory.

Cons:

Minor quibble with the key card activating all the power in the room. Maybe I'm old school as I have no issue with switches and turning things on! I know it's all designed to be as easy as possible but that confused me a bit when I realised I needed to have the keycard in just to charge my phone too!
