Colin
Feeling that I loved this exceptionally comfortable hotel after staying for 1 night. The rooms were reasonably large and well laid out and the location was magnificent to supermarkets or along seafront to town centre. It was also adjacent to resturants and the rest of the island.

The venue was in a central location so close to transport and resturants and a quiet area. It was in a quiet street.

Archie
Great value for money, with comfy beds and spotlessly clean rooms. The location was ideal - close to town but peaceful for a good night's sleep. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our stay.
The breakfast menu could have had more options to choose from.

The hotel was fairly clean, and the close location to the city center was particularly good, the staff were very friendly and always available. Rewritten: I would definitely return here; the place was pretty clean, and its proximity to the city center was great, the staff were really nice and always around to help.
