We were surpised to learn that our unit did not have an ensuite bathroom or shower, but one is available down the hall (hostel style). The room is tidy, and clean however and there are plenty of things to see and do. The check-in was easy, and the staff are friendly and happy to help.

A real bargain in the off season ($75 USD/night). It is very bare bones, bathroom/shower down the hall, no room service and a small basic room but the bed was comfortable and it was quiet, and you can't beat the location...

The room was cold and an extra blanket should be in the room for those that want to be warmer at night. The tile in the shower should be sprayed with bleach to clean the mold/ mildew. The tv didn't work at all. It needs to be fixed. Otherwise, the place is great for the price which most people can afford.
