Is this the north shores best kept secret? My only problem with giving five stars is that everyone else will want to stay here! We will certainly stay again when based on the shore, and what a view - stunning.

The woman on check in was lovely.
My ground floor accessible king studio was very dark and damp. I was disappointed because the website photos made me think it would be a flash stay.
It's quiet and close to Highbury shops with plenty of restaurants.
