Not just a boring hotel room. We had two rooms to spread out. Pretty gardens. Lovely staff who accommodated special dietary requests for breakfast. Note that it’s a drive to the beach and main shopping. Not the most convenient part of town but walkable to some shops and dining (like McConnells ice cream). The rooms are more vintage which we loved. French press coffee was delicious. Our room also had a small fridge and a microwave ##### Lucie Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Volodymyr Feb 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely stuff, yummy croissant and fresh orange juice for breakfast.
