Amazing place to stay! The view from the room was incredible and it was very cozy with the chairs to sip tea and watch the seals jump up and down in the water. Every detail is there to make your trip feel comfortable. Even stopping by to see if you want any snacks or cheese. It was very clean, they had Dove products in the bathroom, coffee machine, kettle for tea, microwave almost anything you could think of. The bed was very comfortable and the elevator smells amazing. Wonderful and helpful...
