Well below standard, old n obsolete, and nobody at reception for 20 minutes when we arrived. Very disappointed, especially for the $165 that I paid

You get what you pay for. The place is old but... It is clean, the bed is comfortable, the air con effocnet and quiet and did I mention it was clean? Bill was an excellent t mmhost when the Ferry was three hours late. Nothing seemed a bother so excellent customer service as well. As an over nighter you can't fault the place for value for money.

It is a joke. The laughing stopped when I remembered how much we paid. Multilingual staff have limited English. One uncomfortable chair in the room for two people. Dirty, spider webs on the ceiling, no bathroom exhaust fan. The cleaner uses the reading lamp electricity wall plug and does not plug the lamp back in. Three glasses. One side plate, no other plates. Local pub was shut. Really old SD TV so I doubt if it can be used for streaming video. No wifi unless you go to the office to ask for a user name and password. Then there are also a few negatives, like $205 per night for a room that is unfit for purpose.
