A charming stay!

helpful staff quiet location customized breakfast
I found the staff very friendly and helpful. Gail showed genuine interest in hearing about my daily adventures. She offered helpful information about local areas. The location is beautifully quiet with easy access for walks. I had no issues driving to the coastline. The breakfast was AMAZING!!! It had many options. The staff helped me customize based on my needs.
The shower pressure was annoyingly slow. It was mostly cold too.
