Perfect for 1 night, next to the port
Pros:

Very confortable bed, location is great if you travel by ferry. There is free coffee in the garden.

Cons:

The stairs to get up in the bed are very hard to climb. The bathrooms and the towels smelled weird. Theres only one elevator and it takes forever.
The rooftop bar is very loud and hipters.

Amazing! Will stay again!
Pros:

Location, convenience, amenities!! Ferry terminals are just across the road with the roulettes in between each one for cheap food. I loved the whole thing. The kitchen, water dispenser and ice machine on the patio was my favourite part!! I travel a lot and most of my budget goes on buying water alone so this was amazing value for money

Cons:

Nothing!
