The rooms were run down with tape holding up one patio door curtain and cobwebs in the bathroom shower stall, Staff members called to the site when the room lock would not work came promptly and were very kind but I would not stay here again. The walls are paper thin so you hear everything in adjoining rooms and noise from the heating systems.
Loved how it was walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Hotel was very clean and lobby was always restocked with coffee, ice and water. But, I did not like how there was limited parking space and had to race other people just to get a parking spot. I did get a parking ticket at one point as well because there was no where else to park.
Was not happy with or aware that there would be NO hotel reception personnel. So beware, that is what an "Open Key" system means. Dealing with internet/smart phone technology to gain entry to the hotel and the room was almost a disaster. Fortunately there were 2 guests present who let us into the hotel and were able to assist in getting the "app" so that we could enter our room. This is NOT a hotel(and apparently they have other hotels with a similar system) for someone with limited internet skills.
The room was certainly minimalist, no desk or table. There was a coat rack to one side of the bed in lieu of a closet. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was large with a walk in shower but the sink faucet control lever was broken and getting the hot water on was a challenge.
Lastly, the TV programs were limited to almost entirely to dozens of old TV series or movies. Unable to find any sports or late night entertainment programs.
Lovely aesthetic and convenient. Rooms are tiny and tight with no closet space and no insulation between rooms. You hear everything. Shower was not clean - cobwebs and a spider on the floor and corner elevated tile to the shower. Curtain on the patio door fell down on one side where help up with scotch tape. Unlikely to return.
After spending the day touring the island, this hotel was a welcomed stay, close to the main street and comfortable. I only had two issues. One was with the sign in key which I had to call someone to get the code but they were able to stay on phone with me till it was worked out and I could access the property (it was quite cold outside). The other was that a small desk for work would have been great. It is a wonderful hotel however
Nice location, charming Victorian. Walking distance to shopping and restaurants. No staff to be found. Water pitcher empty in front lobby. Lots of steep stairs to climb to get to room. Room small. No chair to sit on. TV on side of bed. It was convenient and quiet.
Disappointed in the check in by app and the app key and the lack of onsite staffParking was uncertain and the only advice from staff via phone was to try to get a spot close to the hotel. Faucet and shower valve were broken. Otherwise stay was ok
Digital entry, could not get in because the code did not work, no staff on the property and noone answered the help line. We did not get the room we ordered and there was no air conditioner on a very warm night. The Bathroom was beautiful and the deck was nice to have, but our room was tiny with no dresser or closet to put your belongings in. Our things clothes and things had to be placed on the floor.
The hotel is finished to a high standard and makes the best of it's quaint historical building. There is no reception so access is via an app but it was not difficult to download or operate - a normal keycard will await you on your bed. It's well-located for the local eateries and the seashore and for running/walking along the bike/hike path beside the coast road. No A/C but lovely to go to sleep with the sound of the sea with the balcony door open.
