Its little cosy hotel. Very convenient for the ferry terminal. One thing I would suggest is to fix the shower temperature as it was not possible to get it right. It was either too hor or cold.

It was very run down! We ordered breakfast at 7:15 arrived downstairs for the reception area to be dark unopened for business and then left at 7:30am without having breakfast! Nice friendly staff, but the decor and musty smell let the place down. There is a huge potential for the property!

We had a lovely stay at the Boathouse Hotel, and found the staff to be extremely accommodating. How lovely to spend time in this quiet spot, right off the Wales Coast Path.

Lovely little hotel with a great pub. I stayed there just because I had to take the ferry over from Dublin, but I would go back for a weekend holiday. The staff was SO sweet and helpful, and the restaurant was very good. The area also had a really pretty walk up the mountain and views of the water.
