It’s an older property but workable and more than sufficient for our needs. The location is excellent and staff helpful and courteous. My only complaint was the water had a sulphuric odor and the water was shut off for the entire hotel at 8:30 AM the day we checked out.

The man that checked us in on 13 May was very nice and helpful. The other staff were not so helpful. Did not look up when we came in or out of the building to greet us.
The hotel is old and not very nice. I don’t think it’s even a 3 star. Very very basic room.
There was a three star right around the corner that was much nicer than this one. I would not recommend this hotel.

Fantastic location. We had superior room so had a balcony with side view of the port. Reception staff were really friendly and the hotel felt very safe. I would have expected slightly more from a "superior room". Bed was quite basic and we were only provided 2 tea bags (1 green & 1 camomile) so if we both wanted the same - we couldnt. Also the hairdryer in our room was melted and turned bright red when i tried to use it. Bit of a fire hazard. That being said...i would stay here again

Excellent location, walking distance too lots of beautiful sites and excellent restaurants. The area may be busy for some, for me it was part of the appeal…. No car park, but several in the area and a short walk away. I would definitely stay here again

Good location, fairly basic accommodation
Fine for a short stay. In the heart of the Old Port, close to bars and restaurants. Negatives were the sewage smell from the bathroom overnight and no kettle for tea/coffee.
