Excellent Stay with Great Hosts
nice selection quick walk
The host was really accommodating to my needs. Breakfast offered a nice selection of items and tasted great. The location was close to the Pleasure Beach, a quick walk is all I needed.
Parking at the rear of the hotel cost extra money, which I paid upfront, a bit pricey really. Spaces were not well-marked, causing some inconvenience because of how other people parked.
