Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This property was spotless room amazing ' but no chair in room or shampoo . The shared kitchen area was clean plenty of breakfast to use ' but the noise from the train is tough to take even for me a heavy sleeper. The property was used by about 12 or more islanders who sadly did shift work so at 2.00 in the morning they are awake cooking talking far to noisy & would think it might make female clients feel un safe when using toilets showers .

Good value

Exceptional value for backpackers and people who want to travel cheaply. It was a pleasant environment, good kitchen facilities and the communal showers were hot and powerful. Position was perfect for travellers without car. Right next to train station and ferry.
