Reviews
It was relatively sparse but clean and comfortable. Service was good and the restaurant offering was great. We had a plated meal.
Great location for a walk down to the Black Beach about 1km away.
This is a high school dormitory that's converted to a hotel in the summer. The front deck person was terrific. The breakfast was so so.
