We enjoyed our 1 night stay. Plenty of supplies in the room: a safe box, an iron/ironing board and a work desk. Located in front of restaurants and bars. Also, it was near for visiting The Peace Memorial Museum.

The whole experience was very relaxing. I loved the ancient-style building, very specious room. Big beds, climate control, iron and ironing board, and balcony were a nice touch. The beach nearby was perfect and the view was amazing. Had warm drinks in the wine bar in the evening.
