Upon arrival, was underwhelmed by the staff…not very friendly or welcoming. When we saw our room which was a “garden view” I was shocked to see what looked like a war zone…there was no garden view to be seen. Called the reception three times yet phone kept disconnecting every time they answered. Finally someone came up to our room to ask if everything was ok, I shared my disappointment and was told they agreed with the lack of view and would try to find a different room. We were moved to the first floor which was no better but were promised a better room the next night. Needless to say, we did not sleep in what felt like a dungeon room but were moved to the fourth floor for night number two. This room was better but were surprised that no one asked us about our room etc. We asked for directions to the port and the staff were not exactly warm or helpful. The room smelled musty, especially the bathroom! On our final night, we called down to the reception to ask if they had a scale to weigh luggage and were told they would call back to let us know. No one called back! When we checked out this morning, we were asked to pay for the city tax and that was it…the service and lack of professionalism at this hotel was extremely disappointing!!

Great location for weekend break.
Funky hotel in great area, away from really touristy part but close enough to walk to everything. We saw this hotel recommended on a travel blog and it was definitely a good recommendation. We arrived early and a room was ready but the guy who welcomed us advised us to wait for the room we had been allocated as it was better. He asked for a priority check in and saud they would call if this was possible. We freshened up and headed out for the day. Early check in didnt happen but it was no issue as we had plans for the day. Room was great, a little warm when we arrived as curtains were open and a/c was not turned on so it took us a while to cool the room down as it was a very hot day. Nice balcony overlooking the pool garden which was.a really unique feature. Grest shower which didnt steam the whole room up which is always a bonus! We were staying 3 nights so space was fine but if it was part of a longer trip and we had more luggage it would have been a little tricky for hanging space in particular. Lovely big bed, very comfortable and very large towels which we love. Staff were all great, really helpful, offering information etc. Breakfast was excellent. Lots of choice, all very good quality and really nicely presented with regular replenishment. Hot options were more limited but still really nice and high standard for buffet breakfast.
