Our stay was excellent in every way! The room was spacious and clean, the shower was very good with excellent temperature and pressure. The food was crazy good, the fish tacos were incredibly flavourful as was all the food. The hotel location was right for us being central to some nice hikes and scenery.

Staff were friendly and helpful. The choice of breakfast was very good and generally very well cooked. While the room we were allocated had an excellent view over the harbour, it was narrow and would have benefited from better bedside lights for reading in the evening.
