The best pub on the Island is attached to the hotel! Lots to do close-by, even though it might not seem like it on a map.

Bar is dated but works, given there is very little else around, (I.E. you’re at one corner of a major highway between a ferry terminal and a big city).
Smoking takes place outside 1st floor rooms which was oddly placed, requiring the one window that unwinds to outside be closed.
The toilet is situated in such a way that the bathroom door is against the leading porcelain edge (if not closed).
Bar could use a freshening, and the structure as a whole will need ongoing upkeep to keep it at a level where people will stay. Given hard work and continued attention I would stay again.
