The hotel is located in the old town. This is very touristy, but we were tourists, and as such I think this is a good place for a short stay in an idiosyncratic non chain set up. The staff are friendly and helpful, Breakfast is good, as are the beds and lighting in the room. The room we were in on the second floor was small, looked out at a wall only a few feet away, and disconcertingly the windows opposite had a direct line of site into our room. Happily I never saw anyone in the other building! Also no air con, and I suspect it could get very overheated in hot weather. We had to have the windows open, and this makes it a bit noisy until fellow tourists decide it is bed time. If travelling in winter this of course would not matter. The hotel is crammed with nautical bits and pieces from or about the 17th/18th century, with a focus on nelson/hamilton. Some of these are quite fascinating, others give the place a slight feeling of dilapidation.
