Guests most remark upon the extremely high ceilings in the rooms, which gives the rooms a feel of openness. Just a few minutes' walk from the seafront and a view of the water from the room have made many guests appreciate the area more.
While the hotel was renovated, there are still areas in the hotel that are in sore need of repair and maintenance. Tea kettles are in each room, but you will have to buy your own tea to go into them. Dinner and other meals must be taken at the adjoining hotel.
More than one guest has remarked on the disorganisation of the front desk and reservations. Overbooking is a frequent issue at this hotel. Travel insurance is probably a good idea, or even calling ahead to confirm with the hotel directly.
