Lovely hotel on the harbor side of the island near the Strand. Much quieter than the beach, and between my 2 favorite restaurants! Easy to walk places and I enjoyed just sitting on the benches and watching the ships go by. Very comfortable room and pristine!

The room was nice, and we especially liked the linens. The sheets were comfortable and the fluffy towels even had a nice fragrance. I liked being able to open the windows for fresh air. The front-desk staff, especially Dee, were the best part of our stay. She was very helpful!
