The staff was super friendly (Dave). The hotel is in a quiet fishing village where you might see eagles, seal, otters and whales.

Disliked: Amenities
The property clearly exists for fishermen. While the owner is very pleasant and chatty about local attractions the property falls short for “sightseers” especially for the price. The walls are very thin and the guests next door checked in after 10pm and stomped and thumped around and I could easily make out their conversation. I will say that the bed was very comfortable!
