We had a lovely one night stay before our cruise. Our room was small but adequate for one night. Love the security and location. Very helpful and friendly staff. Loved the open bar that was included and appreciated the bottle of sparkling wine that we received as a VIP member. Great stay!

Great location. Great staff, ready to help with everything. Comfortable rooms, nothing fancy. Open bar, if thats your thing. Bed was a little sloped. Roof top terrace had great view. Be aware there is no elevator and the 4th floor where my room was meant a long trudge up.

The staff were nice but the property was deplorable. The plumbing couldn't handle regular toilet tissues. It was nasty and the floors where full of old dirt !!!
