Can't beat the location, walking distance to everything in town. Room was large, kitchen well appointed, could have used a bigger more comfortable couch given the room slept 6 but the couch only had room for 3 but everything was clean and the staff were lovely.

Great friendly service. Beware they have an electric blanket underneath the bedding in case you have adverse reactions to it like me. They are happy to remove it if requested.

Mary was very helpful with great suggestions of things to do. She also gave me info on the ferry conditions and kept me updated. Room was very comfortable with small kitchen and separate bedroom. Had a laundry which was easy. Even had Netflix to use. Wifi was excellent. Walked everywhere, good shopping and eateries. Definitely recommend with very friendly staff. Michelle was available on the weekend to help with anything else. Lovely homey place to stay.
