Great stay and value

Wonderful full breakfast was provided. Quaint building with multiple sitting areas to enjoy the view of the beach and waves. The train went by a few times, but it didn’t disturb us. The king size bed room was very spacious. Great location near the bridge to cross the street to get to the beach. Free parking was an extra bonus.

Great hotel across from the beach. Hot breakfast, clean rooms that seem a bit larger than most. Parking can be a challenge as the underground lot is a bit small. We would definitely stay here again!
