Good value for money. We stayed for two nights and it’s a lovely place with two beds and good TV choices with Netflix, YouTube, Prime. WiFi worked great. We walked to high street which is about 15-20 minutes. There are good choice of eateries. The place located near main road you will expect some noise during rush hours otherwise it’s quite, we both slept well.

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.
