It was very clean and convenient with easy acsess to both building and room. The only thing that was a bit hard was the lift of one big suitcase up the stairs. Would definitely recommend.

Place has a terrible smell

The place had an awful smell throughout the whole house. We stayed ontop and the smell was even worse. It was so cold that night that we slept with the windows open just because the smell was so terrible. There was no way to contact the people in charge to ask if we could stay in a late check out because check out was 10am and we were going on a cruise at 1pm and we didnt know what to do or where to go and we had to leave at 10am.

Small renovated row house in suburbs No air conditioning . Room was way too hot in direct sunlight (June). Double glazed windows kept the road noise out when closed but had to be opened for even minimal ventilation. Property clean and very basic. Some way from cruise terminal and town attractions . Incredibly pricy compared to full service business hotels in town center.
