The property was within walking distance of the ferry terminal. The cottage was small but perfect as a home base since we were exploring shops, restaurants and the beach.
My friend and I loved this place! Super cute and quaint and it was perfect for a simple trip to the island. The amenities were perfect and I loved that there was a Roku in the room so we could watch Netflix after a day of relaxing in the sun :)
Aside from the sheets, our room was not cleaned properly. The floor was crusty. There was hair in the and shower. There's no AC. The refrigerator didn't really keep things that cold. The staff were helpful, but sometimes were away. You'd have to wait for them to show up to address any concerns.

It is a hotel that is on the lower end in terms of prices so you get what you pay. We got the cottage for three people and the bedrooms were small but a decent size for just a night. Restroom connected the rooms together but the doors didn’t have locks which was a bit weird. Restroom is small as well, we could literally sit at the toilet and wash our hands at the same time. We liked how the hotel locks the front doors after a certain time; made us feel more safe as the cottage is on the side of the hotel and outside. Besides that, it’s an outdated hotel with very nice staff! I can’t remember her name but she was an older lady with red hair and she was incredibly helpful!
I'd chose this hotel when there is absolutely no other option available. Following are some reasons:
- The building is super old.
- Rooms are super tiny
- There is no elevator so you have to drag your heavy luggage 4 levels up the stairs yourself.
- No coffee kettle in rooms
- No AC in the hotel and the fan kept switching on and off the whole night (It's an old building was the explanation given by the staff member)
- There is no housekeeping available.
- Hotel has absolutely no staff for anything

We had a nice stay, but they need to replace the old and defective shower valve. It was very difficult to get the water to run hot correctly. My wife got scolded before she figured it out.
I was really excited about staying at this hotel - it looked so charming on the website. The room is super cute.
Unfortunately for us, there was no hot water, which we were made aware of at checkin. Being on our limited budget, we decided to stay anyway and not shower in the morning. We looked forward to a relaxing hour of TV before bed. But the TV didn’t work either. Looking for a refund of some sort as we booked through Expedia. I am hopeful that will happen. Perhaps the hotel will be better prepared for guests in the future.
