Cold - but Value for Money
Last minute booking due to cancelled ferries on a cold and windy night. Room was very cold as heating was off and old sash windows rattling in the wind. It did warm up once the radiator was on, but was still cold. Staff very pleasant and helpful when we asked for blankets. Breakfast was fine and plentiful. Parking outside is time restricted which meant we had to move our car a couple of times. Apart from the temperature, the stay was fine and value for money.
