Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this hotel nestled down the shore. The rooms offer reasonable amenities and feature three-quarter size beds suitable for adult kids. The service was top-notch, although the price could be considered high for what is provided. The location is charming, but not overwhelmingly so. The dining experience, specifically Thai food, was a delightful surprise. Overall, a pleasant experience with a few minor drawbacks.
The hotel provides a great experience close to the train station and not far from a lovely beach. My stay at the Ferry was wonderful, with just a few minor drawbacks. The location is fantastic, and the hotel offers good amenities for adult kids with three-quarter size beds. However, I found the dining experience to be less than expected, and the value for money could be improved.
I had a delightful stay at this hotel. The rooms were well-equipped with good facilities, making it suitable even for adult kids with a three-quarter size bed. The service was exceptional, and the location was ideal, right in the heart of town. The dining experience was excellent with fresh and healthy dishes. Overall, a great value for money.
