We missed the boat, they changed our boat to the next boat free of charge. Checking in and everything else was easy. Perfect experience, would definitely book here again.

The boat was like a sauna and because of rough conditions no windows were open. Just a bad experience. Probably be OK if it was flat a you can breathe. Very bad exhaust smell. I've done this trip many times but that one sucked. I'm going back with someone else

The port waiting area is a disaster place, very unorganized, no signs. The escalate was out so you have to carry your luggage downstairs.
