The room was nice for a one night stay. It had a toaster and rice cooker in the room with a few dishes. Our room had 2 beds for 3 plus a couch. It was right across from the water, there was a BBQ available for use, and a short walk to all the restaurants and grocery store in town. We would stay again!
