The rooms were spacious, easy check in.
Needed extra pillows which we asked for and they brought them to the room. Was an easy walk to the city so a good location.

You can reach the main city attractions and restaurants on foot, so it is recommended for regular tourists. The room facilities are simple but sufficient, making it very worthwhile at this price.

Reception was already closed at 5:30. No check-in info was sent until 4:00 same day. There was supposed to be on-site parking but there were actually only a few spaces. The heat was a space heater in a closet. Location is very central.

Room was clean and had what we needed. Checking in after reception had closed was simple and easy. Glad we arrived in time to access a car park on the premises, would've stressed if all the parks were full as only limited on-site parking.

It had good views and a handy location. The check-out instructions mentioned a drop-box for keys but I didn't see it. I just put them back in the lock-box. There are only 6 rooms on the ground floor and lots of stairs so be prepared to carry your luggage up them. No extra blanket or pillows, or face cloths. Very old building with a poorly executed cosmetic update.
All week before our arrival, I kept getting messages asking for photo ID to make sure it was us checking in. I thought this was scam email because I've worked in hotels and stayed in many and this has never been required before. I ignored all those messages and was able to check-in successfully. If those messages are from the hotel, they need to stop sending them.

The view that we had from the top floor was lovely, especially at night. It was close to town that we walked rather than drive and it’s really close to the Saturday market.
There was plenty of eateries to choose from that were a short walk away.
It was a great place to stay at to start off the holiday

The location is excellent, views from the balcony are great.
The showers were appalling, carpets were a trip hazard, building old and dilapidated, recommend bringing your own pillow.

Great location. Very much a budget motel. Stayed five nights and the room was not serviced duting that time. The room was OK, the bed good and the hot water excellent. The whole biulding is very much in need of major renovation and repair.

Hi guys, thanks for the stay the night before Point to Pinicle. The room was simply but had a clean and comfy bed which was all I wanted. Staff were very nice and friendly. The price was very fair which I appreciated. I would stay again.
