Cute upstairs unit in a triplex conveniently located across the street at West Beach and surrounded by the Hotel Milo. Beds were very comfortable and unit was nicely appointed. Loved the balcony with the peek-a-boo view of the harbor.

Great place if you’re looking to walk to the beach and restaurants/bars. Very comfortable amount of space outside of the bedrooms. Parking space is in a private garage, which is something I hadn’t seen before, very convenient and safe. Would stay again!
