Pros:

Nice hotel in beautiful old building, althought the rooms were in an annex. Great for a night while travelling in the UK. Staff was very friendly and welcoming! Although we were too late for dinner (due to delay of the ferry), we could get something to eat.

Pros:

Everything you would expect from budget accommodation (in a good way). All the basics were there, everything worked, it was clean and the staff were friendly.

Cons:

Lighting was harsh. Warmer LED lamps would have made the room more inviting when the sun was down.

Prima verblijf om de ferry te halen.
Pros:

Lekker gegeten, vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel: we moesten vroeg uitchecken en de avond van te voren hebben we een paar flesjes drinken gehad en kregen we verse "pastry's" in een bewaarverpakking die erg lekker waren. De koffie op de kamer was best te drinken, dus alles ok.

Cons:

Het matras viel een beetje tegen.
