We stayed one night after coming across on the ferry. The room was fine with all modern features and a nice view of the harbor. Bed mattress could use upgrading to pillow top style. This property is on a moderately steep hill so the flat parking areas are limited on the property. The rooms are also on different levels on the hill accessed by stairs. Access to rooms might be a challenge for the elderly
