Our room was very clean and had an exceptional view of the ocean. The property was well manicured and it was very pleasant just to sit out as well as eat and look at the ocean. It included a good breakfast and the staff was very friendly.

Staff was friendly, and even let us borrow an umbrella for a rainy day. The room is an old school room, but very nicely done. Bed was firm, and by morning I was moving around a lot. Breakfast was nice, but limited. Views are great! I would definitely stay here again!

Recommended with moderated expectations

The view of the harbour made this motel worthwhile! The breakfast was nice but sparse and for the price we paid, I was expecting more. Nonetheless, I would stay here again because the location was great, the staff was friendly and it was clean and reasonably comfortable.
