I would definitely stay at this location again. It was easy to get around and one of my favorite things is it was easy to do our laundry (there are two inexpensive little shops right around the corner). We had THE most AMAZING breakfast included.

Overall nice hotel. Had booked business room overlooking city. Got a room that overlooked a building in middle of demolition and a dog park. Had a very nice breakfast service. Also, hotel is relatively close to ferry terminal access by foot and airport by taxi.

Dated soulless hotel good location beware parking
Not a 5 star...but a good 3 star. Location great for walking Old Town and restarunts and shops. 12 parking spaces for a very large hotel...parking is a nightmare. Reception and bar service good. But no atmospere in restaraunt or bar. Rooftop with pool only which closes at 1800. Stunning views but no bar or restaruant....crazy!
