Stayed 1 night with my teen kid. Whole wing was nice and quiet, spacious room. All cutlery etc. Beach across the road. Other guests - colorful peeps from different walks of life - not many, decent and friendly. Its dog friendly too, which is always a bonus if you life brief hangout with someone else's pet:-)). Overal, exceeded my expectations.
