The location is fantastic, offering easy access to local attractions. I enjoyed a sea view room . Finding free parking on nearby residential roads was very convenient. The hotel is large. It never felt crowded (a big plus!).
The floors throughout the hotel are quite creaky, making it easy to hear people moving around.
