Pros:

room was lovely, breakfast enjoyable and location was excellent.

Cons:

Due to no air-conditioning, we did have a fan, It was very noisy when having to have the window opened so it wasn't stuffy.

The stay was disappointing. I am an overseas visitor needing quality sleep after a long flight. Sleep not had.
Pros:

Proximity to attractions.

Cons:

The second floor room faced a busy intersection. For this reason, the window facing the street was fitted with a second set of sliding windows over the old set of double-hung windows. With both sets closed, noise was minimised. However, the room had no cooling by fan or ac. So, impossible to sleep with windows closed, or open due to street noise.
Secondly, no fridge in the room. The hotel doesn’t offer room service so self catering required. But no way to keep it cool.

Comfortable stay, great location!
Pros:

We had a lovely room with a great view of The Hard, including the Spinnaker Tower and HMS Warrior. Our bed was really comfy. Breakfast was superb! Great to be able to park at the back of the hotel too. A very comfortable stay, we'll definitely return.

Pros:

Location, staff, food, comfort all excellent. Room was clean.

Cons:

In room 31 the toilet brush handle is just straight up not connected to the brush head, meaning you are out of luck if you need to use the brush. The front door is a little awkward to get a suitcase through.

Good location, good facilities. Wouldn’t stay again.
Pros:

Excellent location for Railway, Ferries and Harbourside.
Deluxe king room. Very large and nicely furnished.

Cons:

Carpet looked like a crime scene. Arrived at night and looked like blood on floor in various places.
We actually didn’t want to walk on it in bare feet. Was informed in morning it was wine stained and wouldn’t come out.
We weren’t convinced. Carpet needs replacing.

Great accessibility for all and close to the water front. Great breakfast with excellent staff. Thank you
Pros:

Proximity to the waterfront. Access to the carpark and disabled access was really good. Thank goodness for the fan in the room as it was a warm night. Very helpful and friendly staff. Excellent breakfast in the morning too. Highly recommend a stay.
