    Love this hotel's stunning location right on the waterfront. The view across the bay is simply breathtaking. It's set one street back from the main street, ensuring a peaceful and quiet stay. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure that our needs were met. The rooms were well-appointed, with balconies overlooking the water. And to top it off, breakfast was offered. Truly a great find! All was perfect!
