"We had a huge suite overlooking the harbour. Full kitchen, comfortable beds and nice bathroom, also cable TV. Very good breakfast at additional cost. Be aware that the hotel does not have designated parking and the street parking is $2/hr between 10am and 5pm if you are in the downtown area. Also lots of stairs. But overall a great stay."

"Love this location. So lovely - the patio is magical at night to watch the world go by in the bay. The furniture in the room is vintage - so opening and closing the dresser was difficult and hence not used. Having a mini fridge is great. The shower is small - but water pressure is good Overall would visit again"
