9/10 Wonderful! (893 reviews)
We stayed here 2 nights before our cruise. We are also staying a week here after our cruise. Everything is close by and walkable. Would stay here again in a heart beat. We had a king bed and lots of space. Small kitchen and large walkin shower. The food in the cafe was excellent.
