Really good Stay with Harbour Views
comfy mattress ample storage excellent view
The room I occupied was spacious with a super comfy mattress. The suite provided ample storage, including a vanity dresser. The location offered excellent views of boats in the harbour. I found the heater easy to use.
I noted that only one of the two windows in the room opened, limiting ventilation.
