Little gem of a place, very good value. Room was basic but clean, and with a balcony and a view what more do you need? Very warm welcome. Breakfast not included but you can get it in the bar after 10.

Like a lot of places the hotel is struggling to provide the services they wish due to lack of staff. They were only able to offer breakfast after 10am and cooked evening meal between 6-7pm. We were made aware of this when we arrived and therefore able to plan accordingly. Lovely views of the harbour from the balcony.

fantastic sea views - can sit on the balcony and watch the world go by (boats in and out of Marina, the cargo docks at Felixstowe, the ferries from Harwich) Nice walks along the riverside. Property is really clean, comfortable with big windows and plenty of light. Owner really friendly and helpful

A happy visit.
Very friendly and helpful staff. However, as 'oldies', we would suggest that a 'grab-rail' in the shower would be appreciated. A great deal of fascinating shipping activity to watch from our balcony; a most enjoyable three nights stay. The car park and restaurant/bar on site were valuable facilities. Also, the Breakfast left in our room was quite adequate. We toured the peninsular, and Constable country, also visited Harwich by ferry; and would be happy to stay again. Thank you Alex et al.

The room was good. The breakfast was basic, left in the room, claiming COVID for not providing hot breakfast. The restaurant was operating though lunch and dinner. Staff were not wearing masks.
