Review by hotel critic
As an archaeologist accustomed to both rugged digs and comfortable lodgings, my recent visit to the Ferry turned out to be a curious mixture of modernity and practicality. The studio cabin was brand new and impeccably clean, giving me the impression of being the very first occupant. It was spacious enough for my needs, featuring a comfy sitting area and a flat-screen TV to unwind after a long day. The heating system kept me warm, which was perfect for the chilly evenings. I particularly appreciated the well-equipped kitchenette complete with cookware, an electric kettle, and tea and coffee facilities-great for whipping up a quick refreshment. Parking was ample and easy, especially with a waka attached to the ute. The absence of in-person staff was noted, as all communication was conducted via text, though responses were prompt. While the Ferry provides a decent balance of comfort and convenience, the choice hinges on whether you seek luxury or simply value for your money. For someone with a penchant for both history and modern comforts like myself, it's a trade-off worth considering!
