Excellent

Excellent hotel if you have to catch the ferry in the morning. The lady who welcomed us is very friendly. She let us have our take-away meal at the table downstairs and even supplied us with cutlery and glasses.
Very much enjoyed staying in the room I was allocated. Very comfortable and clean with easily the best TV I have experienced in this type of hotel! The only downside was the lack of any breakfast offering whatsoever so I cannot give an overall rating of ‘excellent’.
Clean, comfortable and within walking distance of the train station and ferry port. Great to have a dog-friendly place to stay after a long journey.
Thank you!
The staff was very kind. Check in was easy. Room was small but very clean and suited out purposes very well. Patio on back made a nice place for our picnic dinner. Close to ferry so very convenient.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Neighbourhood not fantastic, but was completely ok. Fine and quiet room, secure parking and 3 minutes out from harbour.
Great value for money. Superb welcome by friendly Moldovian gentleman who offered us a fan and brought us bottles of water as the evening was warm. Great service.
Amazing place, when I arrived at the reception it was old fashioned but when the Lady took me around to the rooms I was really in the 20th century. The security locks used were impressive. I felt safe already. The room was so clean, neat, refreshing I can just go on. I use hotels around the country this was my favourite.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
No window in the room, reminded me of a cellar, but it was clean. The reception area was ghastly, it looked like it had been empty for years. Friendly receptionist though.
The rooms are spacious clean and well equipped. This is not really a hotel but rather a series of rooms with a reception desk inside a building which seems to have been gutted of all else . They don’t do breakfast and there’s nowhere remotely near where you can get some . The only available food close by is a fish and chip shop. It’s a short walk to Harwich International and a 5 minute train ride to Harwich Town
