8/10
When we first arrived we were very disappointed because the streets were too small for the taxi to negotiate so we had to walk the last 300 meters or so through what seemed like a very rundown area and a working boatyard directly next-door. However, we quickly came to realy like the place and the area. Its a relatively poor neighbourhood, but its working families and multi-generational famiies living happy, honest lives. There are also many more decent restaurants than we realised, and a well-stocked supermarket within 5 to 10 minutes walk. There's a couple of 5 star rated restaurants within 10 mins walk, and one of the best pizza's I've ever tasted 5 mins away and it's ridiculously good value! The bus stop is 5 ins walk, by the Euro spin supermarket. The bus numbers and routes align with google maps public transport directions, but the frequency is way out. All in all, had a great time after the initial disappointment and would recommend. Just don't expect a corporate, 4 or 5 star city type hotel.
