"Basic room clean enough though I did find hair pieces in the bath. It is quite pricy for the basic room far from the center and quite up the hill. No breakfasts included. Since there are no shops and cafes near the hotel you end up getting the breakfast in the hotel restaurant which is just okay."

Buccaneer Inn

10/10 Excellent
"I thought I had booked a 2 bedroom hotel suite, and was surprised to find that we had an entire 3 bedroom house! Check-in was fast and friendly. The house was very roomy with a full kitchen, laundry, 3 good size bedrooms (1 king and 2 queen), 2 full bathrooms, comfy living room with fireplace and dining. It looked recently renovated and very clean. Beds were comfortable and the sheets were very soft. The only CONS were the towels could be replaced and the main bedroom was quite loud in the morning with traffic, as it faced onto Hwy 1 - and there were only 2 coffee pods, which was puzzling since the placed slept 6 people. Overall, a WONDERFUL stay!"
