Το πλοίο είναι ιδιαίτερα παλιό, γεγονός το οποίο υποδεικνύεται έντονα από την επικρατούσα( σε όλους τους χώρους του πλοίου ) μυρωδιά υγρασίας και μούχλας. Στο χώρο με τις αριθμημένες θέσεις ιδιαίτερα, όχι μόνο μυρίζει υγρασία, αλλά και μυρωδιά βρώμικης τουαλέτας. Ελάχιστα τραπέζια πολύ κλειστός χώρος ειδικά όταν ταξιδεύει κανείς με βροχή. Οι περισσότερες καρέκλες είναι χαλασμένες και χρήζουν άμεσης επιδιόρθωσης. Τα μόνα προτερήματα του είναι η μεγάλη ποικιλία του κυλικείου, το οποίο και γενικότερα είναι άριστης ποιότητας και το γεγονός ότι ήταν στην ώρα του. Κατά τα άλλα, απαράδεκτο, συνθήκες ταξιδιού σχεδόν τριτοκοσμικες.
The boat was on time and everything fine but the boat is nothing like the modern standard of boat you find nowadays with other companies like seajet or blue star ferries. They really should upgrade! But all in all I can't complain. It got me from a to b.
