Harbour View Lodge

Harbour View Lodge

8/10 Good
"Found the place with a little difficulty as Maps took us to the back of the units. The area is quiet. Very clean rooms were quite large with modern facilities, overlooking the Harbour. Our large TV wouldn't work, they couldn't fix it so insisted on giving us another room, even moving our things for us. The beds are quite firm, that some may not like, but were ok for us. I didn't like that the toilet and floor around it can get soaked after someone has a shower, one had no shower curtain between them. However the staff were very pleasant and helpful, so we would be happy to stay there again"
