Hotel ideally situated for stopping overnight when arriving late on the ferry, rooms all upstairs but comfortable, a fair bit of noise especially from other guests talking loudly when heading to their rooms and when congregating in the common room. Reasonably priced, excellent food in the restaurant.

Great location, great price, easy parking, clean and comfortable with a good size bath. I was at the back which had less traffic noise but the back door was quite noisy with other guests not closing it quietly. It did stop and didn’t disturb my sleep but a door closer might help.
