Great service, good for pets and close to the ferry for a stop over
Pros:

Staff were really helpful and the pet friendly family room was just right for our family of 4 with a small dog. Pets could accompany to the restaurant in the bar area which was great. Grassy areas around the parking were useful for doggy rest breaks. We would happily rebook next time we travel for a ferry

Cons:
