Bed was soft and roll together in middle. Couch was a foldout that really needs replacing, one end your almost sitting on the floor, uncomfortable. Location is perfect.

Wrights by the Sea was by far the cleanest accomodation I’ve stayed in for a long time. They were very helpful & accomodating with our check in at midnight after coming off a late ferry. We would most definitely stay there again.
