Sixties themed hote
Fantastic Location, lovely breakfast, very friendly staff. Nice touches like the glass of bubbly on arrival and at breakfast. However, the hotel is a bit dated and the hair drier in the bathroom went bang when my wife tried to use it. Could also do with a kettle in the room.

Good location, with balcony, no AC but there is a fan and when we went, it was 18C outside. If you are hiking or touring early, they can prepare a mini breakfast for you which is pretty awesome. Otherwise, the regular breakfast is @ 7:30 and it’s pretty good. They still use manual keys for door locks. Has a pool but we didn’t use it. Helpful staff.

Brilliant breakfast. Central so we could easily walk to the market, cathedral restaurant area, marina. Lots of eateries around from cafes to higher end. On a side street so not a lot of traffic noise. Supermarket 3 min walk. Staff so friendly and helpful and serving staff brilliant, quietly super efficient. Room was very good, balcony, great shower. Cleaned every day.

The bed was comfortable, the shower was hot and had good pressure, the window opened, and there was plenty of storage space in the room. The buffet breakfast was excellent, particularly the fresh tropical fruit salad.

Room was very dusty with marks on bathroom door and walls that could easily be remived with a wet wipe, so not thoroughly cleaned. Corridors were also really dusty. Thick dust on door frames and skirting boards.
Great location!!
Staff quite unhelpful and dismissive.

Excellent hotel. 1960s theme is very well done, but not overpowering. Hotel is comfortable and very clean, breakfast is excellent and plentiful. Most importantly the staff are unfailingly hard working, friendly and helpful. We would certainly use again.
