The property is well cared for and well run! It is a few blocks from the main street of restaurants and the Church. It is easy walking distance to the harbour and the bus terminal. We did not choose the breakfast option. The room had a nespresso machine. We had a room with a separate sitting area from the bedroom. It was great! With a view of the church. The ART everywhere really elevated the hotel into a be seen place.
