Small room.
Decor tired. Carpets stained. Bedside lampshade water stained and had dried on food.
Bathroom only had hand shower.
Breakfast servers were disorganised.

The hotel is ideal as a base for exploring the island.
Room was small but adequate. Staff were very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was ok.
The only real gripe was noise. Doors banging constantly and what sounded like a full on fight in the room above at 3am one morning.

We arrived early and asked to leave our luggage whilst we went out for the day. Staff were very helpful, allowing us to check into our room much earlier. The beds were very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. Itâs in a great location.

The staffs were friendly and accommodating. The room was really clean and they replenish basic things everyday like tissue, shampoo and coffee. The only issue is the wifi that is not working or maybe cannot reach our room. Plus there is no good signal in the room where we were staying.

I loved the history of the hotel, room was large and comfortable. A little attention needs to be made to finish ie curtains had fallen off track, so difficult to close properly, USB charging point would be useful. Breakfast was perfect and set us up for the day
