3 stars only because the airconditioning was so cold that almost the whole boat was frozen. It was just too cold on board. Everything else was good/great.

On arrival to the ferry we were told we would have to pay 20myr for each of our bags (despite other customers with bags of equal size not being stopped or charged). Either it is a policy or not, should be enforced for everyone. If there is going to be a charge for baggage, customers should know that ahead of time. Also, the movie that was playing was extremely loud and probably not the most appropriate considering there was young children on board.

Picked out seats at booking but the seats are actually arranged right before boarding. So first come, first serve. Ended up sitting near the toilets with the sun glaring into our seats. Also, the pockets from the seat in front are GRIMMY to the truest sense of the definition. Don't put anything in there.
