we were in a room just off the main inn & we thought it was just newly renovated & to our surprise found out the renos were years old. A GREAT location, welcoming staff & awesome food,, only complaint would be Storm Amy, with here 80 - 100mph winds, which apparently staff have no control over - HAHA

Het is een leuk hotel. We hadden een goede kamer met uitzicht over de zee. Het ontbijt was prima en het diner was goed. Wel is de zaal wat onpersoonlijk en groot. W ik zouden hier graag terugkomen
