"We stayed one night. The room was basic with a private bathroom. It was a great stop off for travelling up the west coast. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was available but we opted to check out ‘scoggin’ a very cool bakery and coffee shop just around the corner. Parking was available but limited if it’s full."
