Based on recent reviews

The Grapes enjoys a superb location near many restaurants and bars, and it's an easy walk to the town center and just 5 minutes from the main street and cruise terminal. Guests often find the rooms spacious and clean, with convenient amenities like tea and coffee, and some even mention Netflix and YouTube on the TV.
