Nice hotel in a great location but would not recommend the food.
Pros:

The location was great, staff very friendly and helpful. Room was nice and clean.

Cons:

The food in the restaurant was pretty poor. My partners starter was burnt and had to be sent back and the main which was a burger was also overcooked. Our friends burger was also disappointing.

Nice hotel, but very noisy and busy
Pros:

The location was lovely, everything was easily walkable and the food at the restaurant was really nice

Cons:

I had to be up at 6am for a hike and loud music was playing in the restaurant until gone 10pm. I kept being told different times it would be shut off, eventually a few of us complained and they stopped.
