I was staying for a long weekend. I only experienced the room as I didn't have any food there. Generally the accommodation was fine and functional, but various bits like carpets and some of the furniture and fittings were quite worn in places. My room was spacious and looked out onto Union Street. The good was a busy view, but the bad was that it was very noisy Friday and Saturday late into the night given that it has an open air bar next door. Rear facing rooms probably don't have this, and probably better mid week.
It is very convenient for Ryde seafront, transport interchange and the shops.
