A charming hotel, a palafito (stilt-house built out over the tidal cove) with a lovely view of a working harbour and terriific light. It's central, well-run, clean, very spare and simple but comfortable. The big problem is structural: unless your room is on the top floor it's like having giants dancing overhead; added to this, all pluming noises - baths running, toilets flushing, taps turning on and off - are clearly audible in the rooms on each side or below. This is difficult to fix, so probably very big earplugs are your best bet. The extremely fixable problem is the wifi, which really didn't work in our room; we stood on the landing or went down to the cafe to get a signal. Wifi extenders would solve this simple problem and I hope the hotel does so, because it's a pity not to be able to give the place a full five stars.
