The room was very clean with nice little touches like a bottle of milk in the fridge and biscuits for tea. The location was great and close to a lot of amenities, including a short drive to the beach. We loved our stay here.

This place was a gem. Now I didn't need it to be close to anything because I had a car and was using this a place to relax and lay my head. But for the price and space, it exceeded my expectations. And the staff was super helpful and attentive as well.
