Staff was friendly. Our room had a beautiful ocean view however, it smelled horrendous. They were fully booked so they gave us air freshener. Still smelled awful.

Nothing unique. Just ok accommodation considering limited choices. Amazing ocean view offsets the rooms in need for renovation.

Great location with views across the bay. Restaurant does not operate anymore. Place needs money spent on maintenance eg door chain broken, shower holder broken, mattress was OK but no pillow top so hard on the hips after a nights sleep, rooms not very sound proof

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We stayed for two days, and everything was fine on the first day. There was an option for “making up the room” for the remaining days of our stay. However, I was disappointed to find that the room was not cleaned or maintained on the second day after we returned from our outing. The blankets were left as they were, no utensils were cleaned, the towels were not replaced, and the washroom floor was not cleaned. I believe it would be helpful to clearly specify what “making up the room” entails for multi-day stays to avoid confusion or unmet expectations.
