solid stay near the port

great location quick walk basic toiletries air conditioning

The hotel's location really helped me out as i needed to catch the ferry. it was only a quick walk to the terminal. the room offered basic toiletries like shampoo and shower gel. Plus, air conditioning worked well. i appreciated having a hairdryer available.

The hotel garage has limited parking. I wish there were more spaces available.

A Decent Stay

central location friendly staff clean room repetitive breakfast limited parking small garage

I appreciated the hotel's proximity to the city center. It was a manageable walk. The staff were friendly and offered helpful suggestions for local restaurants and attractions. The room was clean. That was important to me.

The breakfast lacked variety. It was quite repetitive. I found parking at the hotel difficult. The garage is small. Maneuvering was tricky.
