This is a beautiful, historic hotel. We had 2 family rooms which were clean. Location is excellent for visiting the old historic area of town. We stayed 1 night before ferry to France the next morning. Coffee/tea service in the room was very good. Definitely would stay again.
Ruth, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Good price, easy check in, parking, friendly staff, v good breakfast. Good convenient location. Room was dated and too warm. A fan in the room would help. Hotel is in a residential area so a little noisy advise to take ear plugs.
