The room was generally great and the pricing is reasonable. Check-in process information was received by email and was comprehensive enough to work. However, there didn't seem to be a single staff member onsite which gives a certain abandoned vibe to the whole place. I also had to do some low level hunting to find my room as a result. Room walls are a little thin, could hear TV in adjacent room pretty easily. The room facilities and condition was great though and the location is also excellent.

Beautiful location just slightly away from the main strip in Cowes but easy walk. Room was clean and spacious with a nice view out to the port. Underground parking makes you feel safe and secure.

Beautiful room looking out onto the beach. The floor in the bathroom is very very slippery, and the Jets in the spa needed a run as grit came out of them. But everything else was perfect. Very conveniently situated.

A perfect place to stay

A perfect place to stay. Within walking distance to the nicest restaurants and so close to the markets and nightlife. The room was so nice and spacious with lots of storage. The only thing I would like is a full size ironing board. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
