While the rooms are in a decent state for 20 year old fittings, they're let down by the beds. I've stayed in multiple rooms and all the beds sag badly. WiFi is also terrible in most rooms. Other hotels in town (sadly full this week) have figured out how to make WiFi work, but not the Beachcomber. Nor have they learned how to staff a front desk from 7AM, have breakfast available in their dining room, or ever have a seat for guests in their dining room without a reservation. I've stayed here when I had to if other properties are booked out, at least ten times over twenty years. Every time I hope it will be better, and every time it is not.

Lovely place, we had super views of the harbour. Comfortable and clean. Had mini bar and restaurant for evening meal which we didn't use. Continental breakfast in room option but lots of lovely breakfast places within walking distance on beautiful shoreline.
