The area was quiet and walkable. A very cute town by the water. Our room was clean, just dated. Many pieces of furniture in the space that seemed unnecessary, but then again it reminded me of someones home they lived in. Bathroom was very nice with a heated towel rack and floor. Shower was spacious.
