there was paid parking across the road which was very safe, although we managed to use the free overnight street parking,across the road from the hotel. the room was a studio loft with limited cooking facilities, but sufficient for a stay of a few days.
The staff were very friendly and the small bar was cosy and had a relaxed homely (in a good way) atmosphere. being a small port town, all the essentials were nearby, and the train station and ferry terminal were very close as well. Surprisingly the rooms were very quiet despite the proximity of the transport hub.
