Wonderful place to stay!
Wonderful place to stay! The staff are amazing, nothing was too much effort! Great to have free parking in town & gym access, although the coastal walk is beautiful I did that instead. Supermarkets in walking distance. Restaurants a few steps left and right of front door. Thank you for your fabulous service, will definitely stay again!

We only stayed at the hotel for a night, but the property was everything we were looking for in a boutique style hotel. The decor was cozy and homey, the property was extremely clean and well-managed, the staff was extremely friendly, check-in was quick and easy, and the room was just as great! It's in a great location to explore and walk through town and we highly HIGHLY recommend!

Highly recommend
Super central location . Our room was small but comfortable. The bathroom was light, airy and clean. There's no staffed reception but we didn't need it. Checkin/checkout was a breeze. The guest lounge and free parking plus Tesla destination charger were the cream on the cake for us.
