We enjoyed our stay. The property is older but the room was clean, tidy and spacious with a lovely view of the ocean. The room was well equipped with all of the essentials like toiletries, hair dryer, tea/coffee making facilities, and USB charging ports in the alarm clock.. something that is lacking ...
