Liked: Cleanliness
Room was very clean. Nice touch having Dove products in the bathroom. Parking was easy and breakfast had plenty to choose from. Downside is its a bit of a noisy area both outside and inside the hotel, and our shower had a partially clogged drain. We only stayed for a quick one night stay and it met our needs.

This hotel could use some upgrading as carpets are in poor condition. It is in an OK location but construction in the area limits access to the harbour area.
