I stayed in a double room with a double bed (SweetRoom), single occupancy. The room was nice, clean and had everything I needed. I will say though that the space was very tight, including the bathroom with toilet and shower. It was alright for one person. Staff at reception were friendly. The bar area looked nice but the restaurant was closed as there were no cooks. That wasn't an issue, as the location is great and within easy walking distance to several eateries. The walk to the Historic Dockyard isn't particularly nice (along a busy road), but it only takes about 15 minutes.

We love a stay here but being woken by house keeping at 830 was not fun! I get they clean the rooms but if you don’t have to be out of the room till 12 - 830 is early to be banging on our door.
