Great Getaway

We stayed for 3 nights and had a room close to the lagoon. Very comfortable however there was a bit of noise from the unit above. There was also construction being completed next door which started very early in the morning and sounded like it was in our room! Other than the noise the place was perfect. Close to absolutely everything with ample parking and security. The host was extremely helpful and provided us great options to explore. All dining options were within walking distance.

An amazing location, right on the main street and backing onto the lagoon, but the hotel is pretty tired and in need of a refresh. If you want to be right in town, but on a budget, this is a good option.
