decent stay

friendly owners nice selection small room urine stain

The owners of the place were friendly and cute. i really enjoyed the breakfast offered. It had a nice selection of toast, cereal, and pastries. the yogurt and fruit was fresh. nick also accommodated my allergy when i called ahead.

my room was a bit small for two peoples. the sheets don't fit the double bed, i think. i also saw a stain on the mattress, it looked like urine, maybe. i didnt like that.

a tender escape

warm welcome convenient location satisfying breakfast

Nick's welcome felt so warm, a lovely start to my stay! the location was a gem. I found myself only steps away from the heart of town. breakfast each morning was simple and satisfying, a perfect way to begin my days exploring the coast.

The room was a bit smaller than i imagined. It did feel a bit cramped, especially with my luggage, though everything else was so charming!
