"Professional and comfortable service"

Staff very professional and facilities comfortable. I took a night ferry, the weather was windy so we arrived an hour late. This wasnt a,problem but having woken early for breakfast i was peeved to find the restaurant wasnt open for an hour due to the late arrival. I might have missed an announcement but the notice on the restaurant hadnt been changed to inform passengers.
