"Good trip "
We had a great trip, good calm crossing, we didn't use too many facilities but we did use the sky bar, bit expensive but the Guinness was good, then we used the Hygge lounge, was ok but too many people snoring, including my travel buddy. It was all in all, a good trip

Really nice journey, lovely ship. The only issue is we were sent multiple messages to inform us of changes to travel times that were confusing and nor correct!

The entire return crossing was so relaxing and comfortable, the staff were excellent and the facilities were also excellent. Much less stress free than flying.

The only thing I can think of was there was no postcode for the ferry port in Dublin and the Satnav did not like the address as it conflicted with Terminal 1 at the airport, it would be a good idea if you could put the postcode on your booking reference page, as it is on the Holyhead reference.
