Rooms were fine and contained all mod-cons. Staff were brilliant. Danielle was a great host behind the bar, very friendly and chatty. The other workers who were off-duty were socializing in the bar and invited us to join them and we had a great night. Lots of belly laughs into the night. They really made our stay so much better and we will definitely be back for a visit.
Only complaint is that the room was very warm and we couldn't reduce the temperature.

We were taking the first morning ferry, & the breakfast was not ready when we went to the dining room. It was only being laid out, so we had a very rushed quick bite to eat before leaving. An unnecessary stress to start the day. I'm sorry to have to say that the breakfast itself is very outdated -only cheap cereal/yogurts , one bowl of sad looking fruit - if you don't like a fry. Sliced pan bread only. Very poor selection and poor presentation.

The room became very stuffy and hot during the night, and we were unable to open the window, it was locked. The only way to breathe was to open the door to the balcony, but there was a storm blowing outside and so we needed to wedge the door to stop it from banging. It was very disruptive to a night's sleep. At breakfast, there was a shortage of food served in the last 30 min (between 9:30 and 10).
