the hotel is very close to the ferry terminal, , made arrival simple. the staff was friendly (i appreciated their help with my luggage). breakfast offered locally sourced options and the dining area had ample space between tables.
my room faced a brick wall, i couldn't open the window (this was a bit disappointing). the shower had very little water pressure, it wasn't ideal. i also heard noise from other rooms, sounds from above and beside.
