Kitchen staff really rude
The girl behind the reception desk was super kind and friendly. The housekeeping were spot on with the room. The reason I would never stay at this hotel again was down to the kitchen staff. They were rude and kept laughing at me and sniggering one day I was refused breakfast when I was told I could sit down for a breakfast included in my stay an argument about it ensued with the kitchen staff and the lady who said I was ok to sit down. It made me feel really uncomfortable and I didn't bother. It ruined my stay having to walk past them sniggering at me for no reason.

The location was great, right in the middle of everything; the staff was friendly and the Wi-Fi was fast. The room was spacious and clean, but the electrical outlets were in inconvenient locations and the electric shower head was difficult to operate (it basically just served scalding-hot water)

The hotel is located very close to the airport. It is worth the extra money for a beautiful ocean view. You can see the seals playing in the water and hear them throughout the day. It is the perfect walking distance to everything you could need. There is a small cafe that also has everyday essentials (soap, sun screen, aloe vera, drinks, snacks, alcohol, etc). The hotel also offers breakfast, however if you have a tour scheduled you have the option for a box lunch. This is very convenient and comes with a juice, apple, and pack of cookies which you can place in your fridge over night. Additionally, the hotel is located right across the way from the area in which the tours meet. The air conditioner in the room is perfect, and the hotel also provides complementary drinking water both in your room and downstairs. It is an extremely safe area, where everyone is extremely friendly.

The staff here was awful. Very unfriendly. No one even told me what time breakfast was or that the exterior door locked at a certain time in the evening. I was dealing with a family crisis at check in and they were completely unsympathetic and even attempted to take advantage of me. At first saying they could not accommodate a change in dates unless I upgraded room type and then, Lo and behold there was a room available of the same type when I said no thank you to the upgrade. The room was simple. Clean, but not comfortable. Awful view out my window and the window didn’t even fully close.

Perfect location, just in front of the ferry port, but still quiet and no noisy. Hotel had very good condition, everything is as expected. Front desk had free tea and coffee whold day long. Restaurant had $1 for soft ice cream, but which is not as good as the one on multiple market. Room is big enough and bed is good. Not luxury but comfortable and convenience. The town is very small, everywhere is in walking distance. airport is also only 15 minutes walking. Taxi is $1/p.p shared, or $5/p.car from airport to hotel, but $3/p.car from hotel to airport. Highly recommended. Only thing I don't like is that they won't be able to be charged by Expedia, but via a 3rd party link, which make us feeling uncomfortable of the transaction safety. Sea lion is the major residence here.

Great view of the harbour. There was a comical, loud barking sea lion in the harbour that we could hear from the room. The hotel has a nice cafe that provides a good breakfast. Location is great for getting to the pier for the ferry or for water taxis to do boat tours.
