Excellent RNLI
Amazing after a very bad trip with Condour ferries. Didn’t arrive at hotel till 4.30 am and was greeted and helped by very efficient night staff. The rooms were clean and my disability room was a very high standard compared to other hotels with the same ratings. The bed was the right height and very comfortable. The breakfast good and was able to have it in room as late as possible.
