Parking - I managed to park about 80 yards away - uphill. There is closer street parking on a meter Checking in waa actually enjoyable - very friendly and very comprehensive. I think my room was room 6 - compact sea view double on 2nd floor. It was compact for sure. It's not possible to walk past the end of the bed..it has to be a kind of shuffle and would be difficult for less agile folk. Bathroom all worked although there isn't much water pressure in the shower. Everywhere was clean, tidy and provided what could be expected. The view is beautiful and makes it all a great place to stay in my book.
