    Quirky, interesting, lovely owner who couldn’t do enough for you. Clean and comfortable- very good backpackers accommodation. I would also say it would be good for those who are not backpackers

    Pet friendly. The owner waited for our arrival even it was late at night (ferry arrived at 11pm) to make sure we had a good stay.
