Nice hotel that is right beside the water. We had one of the 10 rooms located in other building that had a very spacious room with a great view. Little confusing to get to room at first because the rooms are mixed in with some offices etc but afterwards it was easy.

We only stayed one night on the way to the ferry but wished we’d stayed more. Our room was large with a balcony and good view. Very clean, quite safe. Sidney is a good place to stay. Restaurants, shops and the sea all close by.
View from balcony. Ours was a street view according to receptionist
