Fantastic Stay. Central Location!

cute hostgreat recommendationscentral locationlimited choices
Nick and Garry were cute! Their recommendations really helped. I found the location ideal. It was only a two-minute walk to the main shops. The beach was just a short walk. I loved being so close to everything.
The breakfast choices were somewhat limited, so hopefully they will expand this further.
