Those that are sitting in the bedroom/lounge can see you moving around in there. An very awkward feeling when you are sitting on the toilet. They should paint them

We stayed here after the Northern Explorer train. The hotel is a 5” walk from train station. Room was spotless, mattress comfortable, linens crisp, pillows were a bit too big for our comfort. Mini bar in room with no posted prices. The staff was very helpful with walking directions to ferry in the morning.
