New Inn
Pros:

Good location near the harbor. Fun and lively pub. Nicely furnished.

Cons:

Rooms are small. The music and noise from the pub could be heard from our 1st floor room, although wasn't an issue for us.

Great stay at The new inn!
Pros:

Fantastic stay at the New inn. Our family enjoyed the great room, the beach walk just outside, the location (short walk to the city center) and the pub. We had a really good dinner and a great time playing dart in the pub.

Clean, good location but expensive and check what night it is at the pub before you book
Pros:

Clean and good location but pub beneath did not close until after 1am and it was karaoke night (none of them should give up the day job!) Expensive for a very bad nights sleep.

Cons:

Need sound proofing

Location was good, a short walk from town.

Room was basic, no fridge, lighting was poor. No room service during our 3 night stay. No replenishment of tea/coffee etc and the bed was most uncomfortable.
