Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
My room was small but not too tiny or too big and it had a very sweet and welcoming look to it. I loved the colour of the walls, the sense of privacy in the bathroom and I loved the bed in particular for it's perfect size and for how cozy and comfortable it was! I was also given a bottle of milk when I arrived which was handy as I didn't have to buy my own bottle when I had to shop at Pak 'n' Save which was across the road. My stay was perfect and very convenient and it was a great place to stay during my few days at the Art Deco Festival.

Was in the spacious suite #1 with two separate bedrooms. Though right on the street, it was surprisingly quiet. And beds were very comfortable. Also within easy walking distance of the sea and central art deco shopping area.
