We stayed in the 3 bedroom home, it was cosy and character filled. Decorated tastefully, felt like a second home with little quirks. Check in was easy, resident cat is gorgeous. Super close to the beach, walkable to shopping and ferries. Parking was great and secure. We can’t wait to visit again.

Location is good. Room a little run down, taps loose, lights not working over microwave bench or bedside lamp. Balcony door was very hard to lock. There was a leak in the corner of the room which wet our suitcase overnight. Would expect more for over $250 a night.

Liked: Cleanliness
Great location for the price, only one block back from the beach, and my room had a water view as well as being able to hear the waves. Cheap & cheerful, the bathroom was clean & relatively new. Nice smelling free bathroom products. Bed was REALLY comfortable, good-sized bar fridge & great selection of free teas & coffees. Parking available for a great price ($20/night) Only a couple of issues… 1/ An old style, relatively flimsy lock on the room door, with no other latch or chain. This, combined with no locked external main door, meant anyone could walk in off the street to access the rooms. As a single woman, I found the lack of security a little concerning. 2/ The water pressure in the shower was weak, despite having the tap at full strength 3/ A few small cockroaches in the kitchen in the mornings
