A very convenient location for the ferry. Good price only downside was needing to be a mountain goat to get to the room in the attic. Not good for people with mobility issues. Very reasonably priced.

Lovely quaint hotel. Staff attentive and helpful. As per other reviews yes there are no lifts second floor rooms are a slight hike up. Yes the rooms could do with upgrading but for what you pay for a night and an ease of access to the port no complaints from us. We had a family quadruple room, good size but really warm room, no air con small windows but lots of road noise when open

Room very small and the bathroom was extremely small. The toilet seat was broken. There was nowhere to hang clothes. We didn't have breakfast so can't comment. The restaurant was good and the staff were very helpful. The free parking was in front of the hotel but for a limited time only. There was a large car park which you had to pay for opposite the hotel. It was very near to the Brittany ferry terminal just a few minutes drive.

This is a good value for money hotel and couldn't be more convenient for the ferry terminal and catching the morning ferry. The room was fairly basic but clean and worked perfectly well for an overnight stop. Reception was friendly and helpful.
