“This place wins on value, plain and simple, especially given the proximity to the ferry. It's an older building, full of character, and the hosts seem genuinely invested in making guests feel welcome. Don't expect ultra-modern, but do anticipate a comfortable, surprisingly well-stocked room and a unique, friendly atmosphere.”
