Great hosts, great location, quality facility, great view out of window onto the bay, good breakfast, hostess supplied us with a bag meal to take when we were leaving very early (before breakfast) which was greatly appreciated. Our room was up several flights of stairs without a lift, but wasn't a problem.

Richard United States of America

Lovely greeting on arrival. Room was comfortable and clean with all the necessary equipment. Breakfasts were exceptionally good and the choices, though limited, were cooked beautifully by our hostess Lisa and served by the ever smiling host Paul. The buffet part of the offered breakfast was limited but perfectly adequate for us.

Andrew United Kingdom

All good from the welcome until I checked out. Nicest people (Lisa & Paul). Always cheerful. Spotless accommodations & tasty breakfast selections. I would have liked to have stayed longer than just the weekend.

Stephen United States of America

Great location, on the water and close to major shopping district. Easy walk to the ferry if that is the means of arrival and/departure. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Made to order breakfasts were wonderful and delicious.

John United States of America

Management were very friendly and informative, beds were exceptionally comfortable, food was not over the top, and was perfectly cooked. Would definitely visit again.
