better than we expected
Pros:

We loved that it was clean and comfortable, from the bedroom sizes to the comfort of the lobby while waiting for our bus after our stay. The floors in the rooms were not carpeted which is a plus since it was raining outside and a bit muddy. We loved the fact that it was two separate bedrooms, so we did not have to book two rooms. It was also conveniently located so that we could easily walk to shop or eat, or simply to take a walk along the harbor to see all the boats, or to watch the people fishing. They have a locked secured room to store your luggage prior to checking in and after checkout so you can walk around or go on an excursion before or after your stay without having to drag around your things.

Cons:

The rooms could have used a small couch and even a small table and chairs to relax together while in the room instead of having to sit on the beds to be together. And the toilets are rather low to the ground making it a little harder for us older people with not so young hips and knees to use without feeling like you are never going to reach it!

Good location but walls are very thin
Pros:

Good location and room was clean

Cons:

Very thin walls so I could hear neighboring rooms and the hall every day. Breakfast is just ok with all packaged/premade options.

Pretty good, rooms are big and clean, unlike some other hotels they offer housekeeping daily.
Pros:

Good options - there are cheese omelette and veggie omelette, sausage and bacons, waffles and pancakes, coffee strong, juice not so good though.

Cons:

No gym. But the onsite laundry room is quite amazing, many machines. Only wish there was an onsite gym available.
