Only one complaint, but pretty big one. The bed was entirely uncomfortable. I was booked in a room with a queen and twin bed. My wife and I had to split up due to the queen sinking to the middle. Staff and location were lovely. But as I pay to sleep there the bed was rough

Great location near the beach which is easily walkable. Pancake rocks is right up the road and walkable as well. A few food options in area, no groceries nearby so come prepared. Beach area was awesome but watch for the sand flies!
