“The convenience for ferry connections is notable, particularly with the staff's accommodation for late arrivals - a genuine plus when travel plans shift. Harbour views from the rooms add a pleasant visual dimension, and the breakfast, when available, is generously portioned and well-received. While the pub atmosphere is engaging, the evening restaurant closure and the climb up several flights of stairs are points to consider for some.”
