Slightly tired
This hotel is a little old and dated but otherwise ok. One big problem is that there is no lift to the second and third floors and the shower is over the bath. The view is peaceful.

don't miss this one!
Nice spacious room with beautiful view of the sea. No kitchen but there was a small microwave. The bathroom was clean and had a big bathtub. Close drive to nearby cafe. Also a restaurant downstairs which we did not go to. If you like fishing, this is the place you should NOT miss. On the wharf deck it's a brilliant place for fishing and I caught three huge ones in 30min.

Eccentric charm
Very old-fashioned motel-style property - no changes to decor for at least 30 years. Our room was huge with a balcony on two sides - views were fabulous. Bathroom was also enormous with a corner whirlpool bath. Worth booking one of these corner rooms (207 or 307) if staying more than one night. No lift to upper floors. Free guest laundry

Convenient for a night stopover. Very quiet town but found a nice tavern and restaurant down the road. The hotel bar and restaurant was closed which was unfortunate.

My room was clean and large, however it was dark, 70’s decor, poor refreshment facilities and cheap furnishings. Would not recommend this ‘hotel’, it is more of a motel.

A little gem!
This is a great little place, the lady on check in was extremely helpful and efficient. The room was perfect for us and the view was to die for!
The view from our patio, there is a path that leads right down to the white sandy beach!!!
