Nice room and a great host but the proximity to a major road from the port meant sleeping was impossible! All night the room shook and vibrated from heavy goods vehicles, we got absolutely no sleep.

Definitely top in the town
After a warm greeting from Tracee we were very happy with the quality of the room and amenities. Just a short walk into town for dinner (with recommendations from Tracee) where we had an excellent meal at Sisu. Would happily stay here again.
