Smaller sized Hospitality with a big impact😊

Communication with check-in went fairly well and there were no issues.
Breakfast was great and I suggest if you are there for a few days you try it!
Close distance to the Two Oceans Mall, quiet, quaint, comfortable, beautiful view, friendly!

Thank you!
