4/5 - Good
Verified traveler
Good to bring your own food and drinks; the plaza is overpriced (though the food is decent) and, in the summer, you could be waiting a long time in the sun for your ferry...

8/10 Very Good! (513 reviews)
So nice to have a spot we could do laundry mid-camping vacation and wait out some rain. The kitchen was great, the room was spacious and clean. Would definitely stay again.
