My second stay in this perfectly located boutique hotel on the edge of the old town near the harbour. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful with lots of tips and a welcome drink! Though I did not have a harbour view, the room had a good shower and comfortable bed - all you really need when there is lots to do outside. I would look to stay there again if back in town.
