The food was hideous at breakfast and dinner- the room door didn’t lock and the decors was shabby. The staff largely appeared to be ‘over’ having guests and have not understood the meaning of hospitality

Food options, particularly for children was limited. Staff seemed a little lack lustre and breakfast area would have been better with more food covered while the small flies (Not midges!) were about. Large hotel with "premier inn" feel, lacking some personal touches. Good place to to just get your head down which suited us for our needs.

Hotel was nice. Done everything we needed. Beds comfy. Nice strong shower. Does need a bit of tlc but was happy with everything. Great location. We had a room that looked out to the harbour which was a nice bonus.

Not a trashcan in site, have no idea where to place garbage so I just left it on a sofa. I just wanted a latte in the morning, I walked up to your breakfast and asked if i could get a latte to-go. Her response was "do you have reservations?" I replied, "no, but can i get a takeaway latte?" Her response was caffe opens at 9am. I asked two specific questions with no answer to my question, a simple no would have done just fine. You had about 6 people eating breakfast, I'm not sure why takeaway latte is out of questions. I found the cult cafe to be wonderful place for coffee, you wanted me to wait until 9am for my coffee? Unacceptable in my opinion. Everywhere we go you need reservations, please inform your guests when they arrive if they wish to eat at nice places please make reservations.

Quite a basic hotel, but had everything needed for my overnight stay before boarding a ferry the morning after. I dined in & the food was lovely. The staff were really nice & helpful. Parking was good on their own car park at the rear of the hotel.

Our room, though small, was clean and comfortable. Reception staff were friendly and helpful. The location is excellent as it's close to the ferry, dining and shops. Parking is in the lot behind which is great for transferring your luggage. Breakfast is good with milk alternatives.

It was pretty and well located. The bed covers looked like they'd never been washed. Property itself could have been much cleaner for the price we paid. Carpets were not clean either. We expected a much better kept property based on the price we paid and the photos online. Also, the staff seemed indifferent. They weren't rude, but they were not as inviting as we would have expected. Perhaps they can be reminded of where they work and that they represent your property. More engaging behaviour would have made a positive difference and would have reflected better for your property. Thank you.

Excellent staff! Excellent views of the harbor. Rather older hotel, could use an update. Shampoo and conditioner would be nice, extra paper goods in room. Not sure why a full breakfast is required vs coffee shop a la carte. Parking area good.
