Not Quite a Home Run
wonky taps drab atmosphere
The room had issues. The taps were indeed wonky. I also discovered a distinct lack of hanging space for clothes. The plastic window sills contributed to a rather drab atmosphere.. far from my ideal.

great recommendation excellent location unrestricted parking
Wendy was very helpful. She provided great recommendations for local spots that I checked out and enjoyed. The location is excellent. It's close to the seafront, and I found unrestricted on-street parking right in front.
I think more hanging space would be beneficial. I also noticed plastic window sills. The room felt a bit drab.
