The on-site restaurant served delicious meals. We enjoyed our dinner without feeling rushed, even managing to get a meal with the kitchen close to closing. It was a pleasant surprise to find such good dining options available.

The parking facilities were excellent, right next to our accommodation. It made unloading and loading our bags hassle-free, especially with the short distance from the car to the room. Highly appreciated during our stay!

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On the plus side, the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, especially Dave at the bar who made my evenings enjoyable with his cocktail skills. However, the noise from the patio area kept me up late, which wasn't ideal for my stay. The location is great for accessing the ferry, but the rooms could use some better soundproofing.

The hotel is conveniently located for travelers heading to the ferry, making it an ideal stopover after a long journey. The rooms are quite old and could really use a makeover, but they are generally clean. The staff, while friendly, seemed to struggle with noise control in the adjoining facilities. Overall, it's a good value for an economy hotel, though dining options are limited until later in the morning.

I had a decent stay at this hotel, especially since it’s close to the ferry terminal. The rooms were clean and comfortable, which made for a good night's sleep before an early morning trip. The staff was really friendly, especially the bartender who made great cocktails. However, the check-in process could use some improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel with clean and spacious rooms that provided a quiet retreat. The staff were incredibly friendly and offered excellent value for the money. However, the dining experience wasn’t the best, especially with limited breakfast hours. The location is great for a stop after a long journey, but you definitely need a car to get around, which might not suit everyone.

The hotel is in a convenient location, perfect for catching an early ferry or visiting nearby relatives. The rooms are nicely decorated, and the staff is friendly and helpful. However, the dining options start a bit late for business travelers, and the noise from the bar was quite disruptive throughout the night, impacting my sleep. Overall, it's a decent place to stay for its value, but there are some areas that could use improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On the positive side, the location is superb, being very close to the ferry, which made my arrival seamless. The rooms were quite spacious and had a nice color scheme, but I do wish that they looked more like the photos. The service was friendly and accommodating, but the dining options could definitely use some improvement as the breakfast was overpriced and simply awful. Overall, it was a decent stay but there were a few letdowns that could use attention.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. On one hand, the location is really convenient if you're planning to catch an early ferry from Dover, and the staff were genuinely friendly and accommodating. On the down side, the rooms felt a bit outdated and I was quite close to the bar, which made things noisy at times. Also, the dining hours for breakfast didn’t quite fit my schedule, as they started too late for me.

The rooms are spacious, which was nice, but dealing with noise from the neighboring room was a bit frustrating.
