    The property was wonderful and old with amiable and friendly staff members. We ate in the excellent restaurant which provided a scrumptious and reasonably priced breakfast. - the location was unbeatable and amazing, within walking distance of places like a college and a main street. - Highly recommended for a couple of nights.

    The tower hotel was in an excellent location for my conference at the institute for child health. Close by but in quiet street. Room very clean and comfortable. Only problem people leaving very early (alarm clock at about 4am!) and making a noise, but that's not the hotel's fault. Breakfast good. Would recommend it.

    Great service and delicious food are offered here. Situated right at the corner of Ship St, this old historic building is in a very convenient location 🏠.

    Not a redeeming feature for this establishment except for the location. Extremely overpriced, the bathroom was filthy, the room was noisy and several items in the room were malfunctioning. I would not recommend this establishment to anyone!

    The location was great. The breakfast was pretty good and the coffee was excellent. The dining room, food selection and china were very nice. The staff was very nice and helpful. When I asked for an alarm clock and a fan, they provided us with one. The bed was comfortable. We didn't have any problems with the shower; I had read problems getting hot water at other hotels. This one had electric water heater in the shower and each shower was warm. I thought it was a very nice place to stay and I would stay there again.

    The room seemed to slant downward (assumed because it is a very old building). The dining room wasn't opened timely in the morning and we had to wait until someone unlocked the door. When I needed a fork for a salad that we bought at the store, I tried to see if I could get one from the kitchen, but the door was locked. So, I had to go out and find a fast food restaurant to find a plastic fork. It would be nice to have the kitchen available during the day for small items like a spoon or a fork; or if we needed to microwave something.

    the room we had was spacious with a nice bathroom that had everything we needed, including a hairdryer. It was handy having a restaurant on-site for a delicious breakfast.

    Convenient location. Informal. Historical building.

    Woken up twice by noisy people in street - but due to the convenient location this was to be expected. Knowing in advance that this was likely made it much less irritating!

    The breakfast was delicious and the parking was nearby. I booked neat and en suite room with hair dryer, a good selection of teas, as example. The location was marvellous and awesome, 5 min walk from bus station.

    Its breakfast should 've been included.
