Great location close to the city. Parking outside the motel door was great. The unit we had was ideal for a family group and the electric blanket on the bed was a nice touch.

Ferry motel review
Pretty standard motel facilities. Good for families as the rooms accommodate more pax. Price was ok but does not come with a.c./ heat pump or fan.No proper closet or place to hang clothes.No tissue box supplied. Ordered room on hotels.com , payment indicated to be cash on arrival but the hotel took the liberty to deduct my credit card even before I arrived. However the counter lady was most helpful and accommodating.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Didnt even check in. Outside of the property is run down and people hanging out in front were less than savoury. In the 5 mins we were parked out front we had someone bang on our window to know if we were parking our vehicle there. Felt unsafe and did not want to bring my chilredn into a property where i didnt feel safe. Ended up finding somewhere else.
