"We stayed here for three nights on an island hopping holiday. We were met at the ferry and taken back when we had to leave. The hotel is in a perfect location right on the waterfront with a lot of restaurants nearby. It is tremendous value for money. The staff were very friendly with good English. I would certainly stay here again and recommend it to all my friends."
