The general manager is one of the most kind people. He went above and beyond to assist me. I'm so grateful. The place was cute, and parking easy. My only worry was not having a signal there to make phone calls. The beach was easily walkable and absolutely beautiful. Thanks for a lovely stay!

This is a wonderful place to stay. The room was beautifully renovated, very clean, and with a comfy bed. We were warmly welcomed by Rishi. We loved the fact that they provided ceramic cups for the coffee and water glasses instead of plastic ones.
