Great location, friendly staff, hotel for the older generation
Pros:

Location was ideal staff was very friendly room was smaller than thought but the view made up for that.

Cons:

For a small room alot of furniture was in place which made it feel tight. For a younger same sex couple we felt all eyes was on us from the older generation as this is what I know now an older generation hotel. However it won't put us of staying there in the future as we only stayed in out room when not in town

Any old materials on roof where work is being done remove and store away as it doesn’t look very nice when you look out your window and see building materials
