Such a great stay. The room was big, clean, very reasonable for the price! The location was also perfect for walking to local cafes or the beach, as well as a quick drive to Heavenly for a day of snow activities. Sam was super responsive and easy to get a hold of. Really appreciated the late checkout when requested. Definitely will come back!
