Really good Value and Perfect Location

fantastic locationseparate showerample toiletries
The location is fantastic. It is near the whale bones, a short walk to the beach, and a quick stroll into the town center. Our room featured two sinks, a deep bath, and a separate shower (a great surprise!). They also provided shower gel, shampoo, a bar of soap, and enough toilet paper for our stay.
The pillows were a bit uncomfortable.

the location was good, just a short walk to the main attractions.
The room was disappointing. The walls were marked, and the window blind was broken. there were insufficient sockets for charging devices and the pillows felt very flat. the bathroom had mould (i noticed some in the shower) and the towels had a damp smell.

the townhouse was in a perfect location, just a couple of minutes walk from the whale bones up on the hill. the beach and town centre were accessible, about 5 minutes on foot. i stayed in room 3, and the self-check in process was simple. the room door codes seemed very secure.
Parking proved difficult. There was no parking near the accommodation. carrying luggage a good distance was necessary. This was quite difficult.

The room was spacious enough for our needs. A large bathroom had a separate bath and shower, a great amenity. I appreciated the location near the harbor area. It included parking, a very important consideration.
I noted some flaking paint on damp walls. The provided thin pillows were not satisfactory. This affected our sleeping comfort.
