Great location from the ferry
Pros:

The staff were really helpful and cheerful even though they had way to much to do on reception

Cons:

The shower tray was filling up every time we showered to the point it was overflowing onto the bathroom floor really bad slip hazard and there was hair and dust around the edges of the shower panels. I had a 5 month old baby the lift couldn’t fit a pram and a case in at once we were on the 2nd floor so it was a nightmare getting up & down. Considering I paid 140 for the room I expect the bathroom to be spotless and at least to be able to her up to the room in one go
