Our stay at the Sea Shell was nice and accommodating. The only complaint that I would have is that my parents have trouble climbing to the third floor, and the steps are uneven and treacherous. I asked for different more accessible rooms on a lower floor to no avail. The room was clean, quiet, and had a beautiful view. Thank you.
