10/10 Excellent
"The hotel was more dated than we expected, but was very clean and well maintained. We knew there was no A/C, but the ceiling fan was more than sufficient and there was even a standing fan if we needed it. The staff were great too. The location was excellent and he view from the balcony was beautiful - overlooking the bay. We will definitely stay there again."
