the location was superb, only a short walk to the beach!!! the room was also very clean and well kept. the owners were very nice and provided a kettle with tea and coffee. it was so helpful that they offered advice about parking.

i noticed the curtains were dusty, which caused a little sneezing. perhaps more frequent dusting would help.
