10/10 Exceptional

I highly recommend the Ferry Inn to travelers to Stromness. It is very convenient to the ferry and the staff are extremely helpful. We had dinner and breakfast in the hotel and both meals were excellent. Our room was large with few steps which was very helpful since I had mobility issues during our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.
