Super fast convenient checkin, super convenient location for my whale tour the next morning, beautiful grounds with plants and pond.

    We really enjoyed our stay . The only thing I would say is the bunk beds take up a lot of room . 4 people in that room would be pretty full. On the good side our dog found her safe place under the bunk beds . A shelf in the bathroom would be a great asset . The lock was difficult very hard to push the key in and perhaps the door could be replaced or painted on the inside

    It's in a really great location, close to the bayswater beachfront bar and a cheap place to stay for the night. For a last-minute trip and for the price, it is good value. Just don't have high expectations.

    Easy to find in a great location opposite the beach. Excellent restaurants just down the street. No street noise, room was clean and very spacious. It is budget but didn't lack anything.
