location of room right on the water with your own private balcony facing stunning sunsets and Bolt Castle, right next to cruise ship tours, clean up dated rooms staff was great, our only drawback is it was end of season and most restaurants were closing up for the season, but Claton is only eighteen minutes away with stunning waterside restaurant's with great food and shopping for gifts will definitely be making it back next year for sure
