I thought this hotel was great. A really good price for 2 nights. Large very clean room. Staff were all very nice. Location right by bus and train stations, walkable to all the main tourist sites. All you can eat buffet breakfast for 10 euros was also very good.

Basic hotel very near stations & ferry port.
Basic hotel very near the bus station, rail station and ferry port. Convenient for a one night stay. Comfortable bed.
The room & bathroom were very hot and we had to keep the air conditioning on the whole time with only 24°c outside. It's a basic plug in one.

The staff was very helpful and friendly. The walls were a bit thin, but there wasn't much noise. It was a good value for the cost.

Very good
Although the room was clean, it seemed the shelves were not checked as there were some sort of crumbs (not sure it was from bread). Other than that, the service provided was attentive and the staff was well informed so passed on relevantbtips for us. The garage availability was a blessing for keeping our belongings out of the public eye.

Passable but room flooded
Hotel was functional and clean. Very little parking in the neighbourhood so it took a long time and long walk to find a place and reach the hotel. The room was large and comfortable. Breakfast barely adequate. However the shower drain was blocked and flooring sloping out of the bathroom so the room got flooded soaking our belongings. It was an obvious structural problem but noone was on site to resolve the problem.

The hotel is basic but clean. It's 5 minutes walk from the bus/train station. The street outside is noisy at night with people, vehicles, road sweepers and collection of garbage and glass at 4am!
The wifi was ok in the lobby but wouldn't connect in our room. Also the internal plumbing/waste pipes were close to our heads so we could hear toilets flush.
Didn't book or use breakfast.
