A COMFORTABLE Stay

cozy roomcomfortable bedwarm welcomeconvenient location
The family room had a microwave and a fridge, great. I appreciated the very comfortable bed a lot. Damien greeted us warmly and this felt good. I found the location convenient since it was near the beach and shopping areas.
I noticed some squeaking when I walked on the flooring. This was a VERY slight issue.
