Pros:

This is perfect for a basic, clean, very comfortable overnight stop. If all you're looking for is a bed and a good shower with no fuss, it's perfect.

Cons:

If you're going to spend time in the room, you might want a window.

Overall, a very useful place to stay. I didn’t like the lack of windows or the key system but it was clean and the showe
Pros:

It’s very close to the train station and ferry terminal

Cons:

I didn’t realise I had to use my phone as a key. It’s fine for some folk but older people may book and not have the know how . My key didn’t work first time round but the guy on the helpline soon fixed it . Apart from that, the toilet was like an igloo. Everything else was decent.

Bargain break would happily recommend and would certainly return again.
Pros:

Compact and perfectly formed spotlessly cleaned and great location.

Cons:

Having to leave at 10 am in the morning only a small grumble! Testimony to how comfortable it was at the property.

Pros:

The value of this place was great. It has no windows so not suitable for a long stay, but the bed was comfy, the water was hot and the price was right.

Cons:

Obviously having more facilities with as parking would be good, but I have to score this on it's price and the market it is aiming for.
