Property is very well located and staff nice. However, a number of issues need to be addressed. The bathroom/toilet door would not close and in a small room this was not very nice. Window to outside (beside the bed) would not close and noise outside was awful.... Friday night until 1.30ish and Saturday night yelling continued until around 2.30 am. Hot water was barely hot. Overall disappointing despite lovely location.

I loved the the water front, me and the Bois were able to walk across the road, have a fish and a few beers right at the comfort of the front door. Bottle shop was 2 minutes walk away, the food there is to die for. I highly recommend this place to any one and I will definitely be returning customers. Thanks once again
