Comfortable room (ambience 'slightly dated/well used'), containing kitchenette and all the gadgets we wanted. The wooden upstairs walkway to our room seemed slightly shaky but in reality wasn't a problem. The location is excellent, at the heart of the town and close to the ferry pier.

Bien situé, à coté d'un petit supermarché et d'une boulangerie avec viennoiseries françaises ! A coté des sites à visiter dans le coin. Dommage que le lit ne soit pas fait pendant le séjour.

Property was in a great location. The area was quiet. Affordable, yet spacious. We were able to make some of our own meals with the use of the fridge, stove and microwave that were provided. Minor concerns: lightbulb missing in the storage off the bathroom, a few carpet stains, the hot water tap needs to be locked in place as it turns when you turn it on.

The property is nicely located with restaurants and a supermarket close at hand. The Beach is just a few minutes away. The motel is fairly basic. No regular toilet paper, just tissues. I ate at Jimmy's Rib Shack a few times. The ribs are very good.
