Cabin was spacious, clean and adequate for our needs but quite confusing that we had to find our cabin first then go back in ourselves to reception to pick up door key. I have reduced mobility and so had to stand around waiting for my husband to go back down to reception to pick up.
The ferry left Holyhead slightly ahead of time which was good and arrived in Dublin exactly in time.
We didn’t really interact with staff so cannot comment either positively or negatively there.
The duty free shop was close by which was handy and well stocked.
The boat was a little old but very clean and tidy.
I would say that this trip was good value for money.
