We have stayed here twice due to the convenience for the ferry. Can't really complain, it's a typical fairly dated motel. Everything works and it's fine for an overnight at a reasonable price.

This motel had spacious rooms with good amenities including a full size cooker. It was clean and warm. We were grateful for an early check in after a walk in the rain from the train station. Fresh milk that was provided is always more welcome than the uht small containers.
