Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location was fantastic, perched atop a hill overlooking the town, and the rooms were cozy and well-equipped. The service was top-notch, and the dining experience with included homemade biscuits was a delightful touch. However, the facilities could use a bit of updating, and the uphill location might not be ideal for everyone.
The hotel is perched up on the hill overlooking the town, offering a stunning view but requiring a climb on a very steep hill. The rooms are spacious and modern, equipped with A/C. The service is top-notch with helpful housekeeping service available. However, dining options are limited, and the price for it is on the higher side. The facilities are well-maintained, but the paid airport shuttle service may not be ideal for everyone.
I loved my stay at this hotel! The location was amazing, perched atop a steep but manageable hill with stunning views of the Pacific. The rooms were cozy and had the bonus of a separate bathroom with a shower. While the service was excellent, the steep hill could be a challenge for some. The included homemade muffins for dining were a delightful touch.
