Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a prime location on the north cliff, offering easy access to the harbour, the open-air theatre for shows, and numerous attractions nearby. The rooms were clean and comfortable, with a licensed well-stocked bar; however, I found one bed still unmade, dampening the experience slightly. The dining experience featured homemade ice cream at very reasonable prices, adding a delightful touch to the stay.
The hotel is located on the north cliff, very near the open air theatre and easy to access the beach and shopping centers. My hosts even recommended the nearby open air theatre to see Texas, which was convenient. The rooms were clean and comfortable with a well-stocked licensed bar, TV, and a pleasant view. However, the dining, although at very reasonable prices, lacked variety in options. The hotel's sweet cakes were a delightful treat.
The hotel is ideally located on the north cliff, very near the open-air theatre where we were going to see Texas. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but there was 1 bed still unmade. The licensed, well-stocked bar offers a great view, although the price for the stay could have been more budget-friendly.
