Comfortable stay before catching a ferry
Pros:

Cute little hotel, has everything you need. We didn't have any breakfast so can't comment on that, but we were happy with our 1 night stay before we caught the early ferry the next day. Comfortable night's sleep.

Sehr authentische einfache Unterkunft mit tollem Ambiente.
Pros:

Sehr nettes personal. Preiswerte Verpflegung auch abends, tolle hauseigene Küche. Die Zimmer sind top für eine Nacht.
Tolles Ambiente mit Live Musik am letzten Freitag des Monats.

Cons:

Leider nicht sehr gut erreichbar, zu Fuss ca. 25min bis zum Bahnhof.
Wir haben ein Zweibettzimmer gebucht und ein Zimmer mit sehr kleinem Doppelbett erhalten.

Shockingly poor!!!
Pros:

Didn’t have breakfast, was afraid to do so ! Wardrobe in the bathroom, holes in the curtains, outside room untidy, staff poorly dressed and uninterested, water cold in the morning, light mirror not working, shockingly bad stay, never again! Pity because a beautiful location and could be amazing, needs some work and definitely proper management, so disappointing 🙄

Cons:

See above

Loved how big the room was, which included the sitting area. Wish we could have stayed longer! Liked the walking path and the view. Dinner at the restaurant was excellent. Hosts tried to be very accommodating to get us a ride to the ferry!
