decent stay, some issues

small bathroom constant humming
The room was quite small, and it felt cramped. the bathroom was particularly tiny. I barely had space to turn around. also, the noise at night was bothersome. I heard a constant humming sound i think came from some equipment outside. it made it difficult to fall asleep.

Wonderful Stay with Amazing Food!

generous portion great food bar area
This place had everything I needed, especially great food in the bar area. The portions were very generous (I ate there every day!). Navigating stairs with bags wasn't too bad. It's just part of the adventure, I think.
Wallpaper in the room looked worn. It could use an update, I think.

convenient location parking permit short walk small room small bathroom small shower
The location was very convenient for getting around. I found parking close. There was a parking permit available for nearby zones if you could find a space. The harbour and beach were a short walk away.
The room I stayed in was quite small. The bathroom was also very small. The shower was especially small and difficult to maneuver in.
