We visited during festival. Quite noisy around hotel. Lots of revelers. Probably a better place to stay during off season. Also hotel had just changed ownership so staff was still adjusting.

Although the property was very clean and staff very friendly and helpful, the beds were very hard and it was difficult to get comfortable. Pillows were a bit too flat as well. The streets around have bars and restaurants that are open very late. Sleep was hard to come by. One night we were still hearing yelling and singing at 4am. Sleep wise was rough. Everything else was very good.

Hotel is hidden on the side street, not easy to find. Windows are not sound proof so experienced drunk people shouting on the street all night. Breakfast is very limited.

This is a great little hotel. Bit tricky to find initially. But it is right in the middle of everything. The staff are excellent, friendly and so very helpful. I recommend this place. The rooms are smaller, but as it's a place to sleep and shower, ya cannot go wrong.

This is a great location. Everything you may need is all around you. Cruise ships very close with a taxi. Would not recommend a walk with baggage. Seems very safe .

Very professional and nice staff but the property was extremely basic and lacked amenities. There was no fridge and breakfast had no cooked options. No water in rooms or water cooler in reception. Also having to leave the key in reception and not having a do not disturb sign available to put on my door made me feel vulnerable.
