The front desk was unable to provide us with a correct password for internet access, when we checked in—if the connectivity issue was ever resolved, we were not informed.

This place is close to the ferry. That’s about it. They stopped serving breakfast at 9AM. Considering how late we were getting in the previous evening we got up at 9 and missed breakfast.
