around the center of town. Self-Service Laundry - No self service
laundry at marina, but they do have laundry service available which is
charged by the piece.

you want to use your own PC, you must go to Reception where you can use a

located across from the bus station along the street with
all the banks - on the way to the Port Clearance office.
