Acceptable Stay with Some Drawbacks

kitchen roof view bar noise
The location was convenient, placing me within easy reach of the harbor.
My room had a view of what seemed to be the kitchen roof. It also overlooked air extractor pipework. Noise from the bar was quite noticeable, especially during the evening.

Some Issues with Noise and Facilities

bar noise loading zone
The location was good for walking to attractions and nearby restaurants.
The room was quite noisy. I could clearly hear the noise from the bar below until late at night, difficult to sleep well. the lack of a dedicated loading zone made it inconvenient to unload luggage.
