Good hotel in an excellent location. We had a sea-view room overlooking the bay and was very comfortable. The roof top pool was a nice way to relax when we arrived and before we went out for the evening. Good value

Even amidst a busy street, the hotel room was quiet. The balcony faced the sea, a lovely place to sit and enjoy the harbor. The staff was gracious and helpful. The breakfast buffet offered a good variety and was delicious. The staff was welcoming, gracious and helpful.
The only criticism is that the signage is lacking at street level. It was difficult to find the hotel. The parking is a bit inconvenient, but not terrible.

Very impressed with this Hotel.
Looks like the hotel has had a refurb, modern, smart looking, clean , spacious, nicely matched furniture in the bedroom. The rooftop pool and bar were still being updated, but will look great. Fan and aircon in room. Nice bathroom with all over / rainforest shower.

Down as a 4* but should really be a 3*. Totally fine, no bells and whistles about it. It was probably very nice back in the 90s but now it a little dated. Well located however.

In a good position by the sea with plenty of bars/restaurants close by. The only downside was the noisy air-conditioning.
