The clerks were so nice to us, both checking in and checking out. The rooms were big, with nice views, and so close to the cruise ship piers and The Strand. I'll definitely stay here again!

Blah, nothing exceptional for the price
I was expecting a really exceptional place, but it was about as nice as any quality inn but twice the price, plus you have to pay for parking and there's no hot breakfast. I was really disappointed. I won't go there again and can't recommend it to anyone.
