The staff was friendly and helpful. The room's condition was poor.
It was a work in progress when I visited, I met with manager and she was lovely and accommodating, I'm sure by the time I visit again the place with be completely renovated. Cheers
The room was large and had a walk-in shower. The hotel is a little dated, but clean. The staff was very helpful. It is a 10-15 minute walk to the ferry terminal and the waterfront.

Very friendly staff, clean room, simple but nice breakfast. Convenient walk to downtown market and ferry.
This is an old hotel that has not been well maintained and is in more of an industrial area. Bedding covers were not clean and the room felt generally grubby.

Disliked: Amenities
The room was ok but the pillows were so hard. The noise outside was so loud we couldn’t sleep at all. The hotel needs to be updated on the outside with paint and new floors.
There was no breakfast but they have a refrigerator and coffee and tea pot in the room. Staff was friendly and helpful. Rooms are clean. Air conditioning is great!
