−Restrictions on kitchen usage. Reminded not to use spa bath for too long due to electricity costs. No complementary hair or soap products. There was an old shampoo & conditioner left in the shower. Being reminded not to leave you face products on their quality towells. Broken front door, not being able to lock, was fixed next morning by locksmith.

“Good place to stay for a night”
+extremely clean and tidy. Easy to find, pet friendly is a bonus!, simple facilities. has everything you need. host was lovely. great pressure shower. Co Close walking distance to Main Street, restaurants and the beach. Cumfy beds! not much of a kitchen but had the very basics you need for a night.
−no use of the spa in the room we booked after 9pm. you pay well over $200 a night for a place, you should be able to use all facilities at any time. Was extremely hot in the room we booked. even with the living room fan on and the little fan on in the bedroom. windows open or closed. no matter what we did, we couldn’t get the room to cool down.
