The property was within walking distance of the ferry terminal. The cottage was small but perfect as a home base since we were exploring shops, restaurants and the beach.

It is a hotel that is on the lower end in terms of prices so you get what you pay. We got the cottage for three people and the bedrooms were small but a decent size for just a night. Restroom connected the rooms together but the doors didn’t have locks which was a bit weird. Restroom is small as well, we could literally sit at the toilet and wash our hands at the same time. We liked how the hotel locks the front doors after a certain time; made us feel more safe as the cottage is on the side of the hotel and outside. Besides that, it’s an outdated hotel with very nice staff! I can’t remember her name but she was an older lady with red hair and she was incredibly helpful!

We had a nice stay, but they need to replace the old and defective shower valve. It was very difficult to get the water to run hot correctly. My wife got scolded before she figured it out.

I was really excited about staying at this hotel - it looked so charming on the website. The room is super cute. Unfortunately for us, there was no hot water, which we were made aware of at checkin. Being on our limited budget, we decided to stay anyway and not shower in the morning. We looked forward to a relaxing hour of TV before bed. But the TV didn’t work either. Looking for a refund of some sort as we booked through Expedia. I am hopeful that will happen. Perhaps the hotel will be better prepared for guests in the future.

Spiders are crawling in the room. One spider even end up at my wife’s shoulder. No hot water during our stay. They promised to refund me. First they said are going to do it tomorrow then after more than 2 weeks later they only refunded me 20%. After I called them , they said they are going to do it in 20 minutes. They never did. Right now they don’t even answer the phone. I am contacting Expedia for this terrible experience with this junk hotel. They shouldn’t open at all until they get everything take care of. No hot water, broken windows, and big spiders come out everywhere. It is really scary if. Local officials should check it out to make sure this hotel meet the basic standards. Expedia should ban this hotel.
