Place was quiet and mostly tidy. A bit tired though. Could do with a spruce up and paint job. Sliding door to bathroom wont latch closed.

A great stay for a couple of nights in studio room. Walkable to shops for supplies and the beach as well. The Mount shops are a very short drive away. The area is quiet and safe.
