A great place to stay for getting on the Interislander ferry in the early morning! Comfortable, compact room - it was a studio room with microwave and fridge - no kitchen sink or cooking facilities. Bed and bathroom facilities good.

Very basic room with poor lighting. Lights by bed were set too low, hits your head. Other lighting barely improves your ability to see. Usual 'motel' vibe.
