I had a brilliant stay at this boutique hotel in Kemptown. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from the beach and an array of delightful restaurants. The rooms are comfortable and well-kept, but there could be room for improvement in ensuring blackout blinds are sufficient for light blocking. Breakfast was great, with a lovely variety, although it could have been served hotter. Overall, it's a lovely spot with a few minor things to enhance the experience.
