We chose a room with a veranda - and it was perfect. Plenty of room and a small sitting room too. Breakfast was a help-yourself-feast. We didn't manage to secure a booking for dinner on the first night so cannot comment on the food as we ate with family after that, There are, however, lots and lots of really good fish restaurants only minutes away and several fast food places too. The harbour is a delight to walk around and is almost on the doorstep. Loved the staff, the hotel and its central location.
