Not so good.

For two out of three nights it sounded like someone was running power tools upstairs, above us from about 9pm up until midnight and starting again at 6am. It killed the peace that is normally at this place.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Decent room, bathroom needs upgrading for sure, puny toilet with a lid that slams shut. I could hear the tenants above us all night long, so not very quiet. No breakfast snacks or anything. Nice that it looks out on the coastline with an unobstructed view, and you can walk out off the back through a sliding door, plus it was easy to find. Expected a little bit better experience for the money.

Lovely Views

Located right along the coast, our room had a beautiful view of the ocean. Biking and walking paths right outside the door. Room was a bit small and cramped because we had a jacuzzi tub. Having the tub (in between sinks and bed) seemed like a great idea but the room is so small, the tub was in the way, there was no privacy and it steamed the room up. Just awkward. Because it’s on the water, it’s pricier for what you get and there is no breakfast.
