"Wonderful view of ocean from main room. Nice and quiet despite road below.Only access up steep steps which could be issue for some. Advertising could benefit from emphasizing this. Could also benefit from some maintenance. For instance dining table varnish getting sticky with age. But despite these the view and quiet get it a highly recommended."
