I stayed here for two nights while on business. I found the staircase a bit daunting dragging a suitcase up it but the man on the reception counter was quite friendly and willingly answered any questions I had. My room was very roomy and clean.

I only stayed here one night, so won't write a detailed review, but was generally very happy with my stay. I had booked originally to stay at the Golden Sands out at Yorkey's Knob, which offered very pleasant self-contained apartments not far from a splendid beach, but the bus from there ran about once an hour, and took abut 45... more
