Amazing Service and Delicious Food
Pros:

I happened to stop by this place just by chance for a quick bite, as my phone was running out of battery and I wasn’t feeling very well. The waiter kindly offered me a charger and served me some tea, which I really appreciated. The salad portion was huge, and the burger was absolutely delicious and very filling. The food, service, and hospitality exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this place — you won’t regret visiting!

Nice Boutique Hotel
Pros:

Only stayed for a night as a stopover before boarding a seaplane. Very helpful and friendly staff who can't do enough for you. Rooms were also well equipped with a good shower, safe, ironing board, scales (did confuse me a bit this one, but good to weigh your cases for air travel!) and a travel adapter plug

Also has a restaurant attached serving a good variety of foods to suit all tastes. Again service was impeccable, better than most I've received in higher end restaurants

Would give it 5 stars but location is not the best and the window from our room did overlook the back of another building

Great
Pros:

I initially booked at the Barcelo Hotel (5 stars, but I wasn't impressed with their support). I changed to Somerset two days before departure. It was a wise decision. They were very helpful and responded to messages quickly. Staffs are helpful. We checked in lately and they still supported well
