A quaint property walkable to the small town centre. We had nice views of the harbor and the room was spacious, but I wish there were better soap and shampoos included. Overall, a good place to rest for a night.

The property was well maintained and clean. We stayed one night before hiking the Queen Charlotte Track. It was an easy walk to the harbor to catch the water taxi. A good choice to make. I'd do it again.

Loved our harbor view from the balcony. Place was close to the city center. Only complaint is that the mattress needs to be replaced.
