Solid Stay, Few Quirks
helpful staffnice shampooconvenient locationsecure parking
The staff were very helpful when I needed assistance. The provided shampoo and soap were a nice touch. I found the location convenient to the ferry terminal and shops. There was easy access to onsite parking and security.
I thought the traffic noise from my room facing the street was pretty distracting.

old showerloud air conditioning
the bathroom definitely showed its age the shower head sprayed water everywhere except where it should. the towels felt thin and worn it was like i was using sandpaper after a swim. i also noticed the air conditioning was quite loud it made sleeping a bit difficult even with earplugs. the noise seemed excessive for a modern unit and disrupted the otherwise quiet atmosphere of the room.
