If I may interject:

I suggest using the sftp client, which encrypts your traffic (including
login information), and should allow you to see the files.

You can also set it up to auto-login as "root" using an ssh key in
your key agent.  Default setting (on Linux Mint) for /etc/ssh/sshd_config
is

PermitRootLogin prohibit-password

 ...which means you'll need to use a key to log in as
root, or change the setting.

Extra sidenote:  if you ever set things up to ssh in remotely from off
the Net, you might want to run denyhosts or fail2ban.

(Thunar can open sftp connections directly, btw.  Not sure about Dolphin.)
