May the host is brilliant. She was fun, had a great energy and gave us great advice for the rest of our trip. Her home was perfect and she was very accommodating with our delayed late check-in. She also left us snacks for dinner and breakfast and even offered to cook us dinner as we were so late! We’d already picked up some food on the way - there’s a great sushi restaurant near by - Nori sushi.

    The location of this motel is ideal. You're no more than 5 minutes from everything you need. A quick and easy drive from the ferry terminal, great beaches, the downtown core, easy access to shops, and restaurants. But, the best part of this stay was the staff. I have honestly never met friendlier and more welcoming staff at a hotel. They couldn't do enough for you and make sure our stay was to our needs.
