Everything was better than expected. I fully recommend this ferry and the people at the ferry till are super nice. I fell down near there and they took me in and took care of my wounds. Never seen such a quick first aid response! Really grateful to everyone there!

The ferry was full and the air conditioning was poor for the amount of people inside of it. It was hot and no air renewal at all. 100% better to go outside on top with the sun but at least windy, than inside. Makes you sick.
