Beware!!

Please be aware if you are booking this hotel when getting a ferry, If the ferry is cancelled they will NOT refund your costs. My ferry was cancelled due to adverse weather and the ferry company as well as other hotels all gave a full refund except this hotel. Hotels.com were happy to offer a full refund but this hotel refused saying its not in their policy. Having stayed at this hotel previously on a number of occasions and also having other nights booked over the next few month i can say this has been very disappointing and i will be cancelling my future stays and will no longer be using this hotel. Please be aware of this if you are booking this hotel due to getting a ferry!

Cant fault the hotel or staff all was good in, every area. Sadly the folks in the room next to me, talked loudly at 0600, snored at 100 decibels and so on. Not the fault of the hotel unless they rebuild the walls thicker...

Ok

Booked a double and got a twin. Not too bothered as it was a last minute emergency stay. Beds not completely comfortable. Walls very thin and could hear everything next door. Noisy in the early hours when a function finished. Staff seemed pleasant.

Good location

Staff on the reception desk were great, restaurant staff average & breakfast staff counting the minutes left of their shift, & generally lacking in any customer service skills. Rooms comfortable but walls are thin & noise travels.

Good value , great location , nicely appointed rooms , only reason I marked it down was the walls were very thin , could hear the guest next door on the phone at 6:15am , don’t know if he just had a loud voice but woke us up , other than that I’d recommend this hotel

Ok for one night

Hotel was far nicer than expected, however no chance of a tea or coffee in the lounge after 9pm or before 9:30am which is strange to say the least.

Would stay again

Front desk staff was very friendly and helpful. Room and common areas were clean. Great cozy room for a one night stay for solo travel. Bed was comfy. Spacious shower (which I greatly appreciate after some ridiculously small showers at other places on my trip). Dinner at the restaurant was excellent. Great location.
