Great food and service
Food was great and staff was friendly and helpful. Room was clean and bedding was great. Only negatives were a/c was minimal so room was a bit too warm, could not get any channels on the TV and noisy from other guests walking through the hall outside the room.

A lovely, quaint inn. Perfect for pre-cruise stay.
This property speaks of quaint England in spades. They were very accommodating to ensure our room was easily accessible as possible. Meals were excellent. All staff went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. We also learned that the Titanic officers stayed here prior to sailing on their only voyage. Loved the pedestrian only street it’s on too. A definite thumbs up and recommend!

Fun and full of life
Great location, if you like buzzing nightlife and great people watching.
The bars around are loud but everything winds down around midnight.
Room and hotel clean, comfortable and well appointed. Like the no fuss approach to the room and breakfast i.e. everything included. Good coffee and tea in the room and a good choice for breakfast. Staff all friendly even the bouncers.
