I stayed here for a few days for my cancer surgery and it was the best stay I’ve experienced on this grueling journey! The beach was so easy to walk to and the rooms were so cozy. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

The pictures of the hotel and rooms are misleading. But I know that is very common for hotels to post pictures in this manner. The queen size room was very small. We had to remove a chair just so we could walk around the bed. The Fire Department came and blocked us in the parking lot. After speaking with the fireman, they said the alarm went off but it happens often there so they did not evacuate the hotel. We explored the hotel after noticing a man with a cigarette, but the hotel signs says no smoking. We found filthy rooms in the bar area during that exploration. Our room was clean and we had plenty of hot water for our showers and towels, so we were grateful for that.

Lovely stopover stay at this hotel . Bright and clean room with a sea view and lovely furnishings in the hotel lobby area. Check in was at a property along the road but this was advised at the time of booking and reminders sent on the day of arrival.

The hotel was beautiful! It had so much charm! We really enjoyed looking at the old photos of the hotel that were on the wall in one of the common areas. All of the common areas were beautifully decorated as was our room. It was very cozy & clean and the bed was comfortable. We loved that the property was right on the beach and within walking distance to everything in town. We highly recommend this hotel 😀

The property was mostly clean and spacious, if not a little bit sandy. The staff checking in were friendly and helpful. The location was convenient for walking into town. However I think the images are quite misleading and the property is spread over a few buildings. You check in at a different location and the building we stayed in didn't look like the images (I think that may be a different hotel). Perhaps it was the room we booked but it wasn't obvious when we were booking how different our motel/hotel experience would be to the images! Additionally the train comes through regularly which I think would affect all hotels in the area, but it was incredibly loud and woke us up multiple times throughout the night.

The beach being right outback was wonderful. The suite was cute with a little kitchenette livingroom and 2 bed bedroom and bathroom. Just big enough for my daughter and I to share some time together since she is usually away at college.
