Parking seemed limited at times, though asking the neighbors for assistance yielded positive results, so it wasn't a major hassle. However, the cozy room could feel a bit snug for those who prefer more spacious accommodations, especially while navigating around the bed and furniture.

Perfect Romantic Getaway with Impeccable Service

We absolutely loved our stay! The location is ideal, just a block from the beach, and the heated bathroom floors were such a treat. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home, with welcoming service throughout our visit. Don't miss their delightful breakfast and the cozy nighttime experiences by the fireplace. One area for improvement would be to enhance mobility assistance for guests who may need it.

We had a wonderful time, especially enjoying the heated bathroom floors and the charming little patio area. The beachfront access and cozy garden were perfect for unwinding after a long day. Just a heads up, parking can be a bit tricky, but the neighbors were super helpful! 😊
