Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The property is great, however, is not similar to other Fosshotels. The restaurant had less options and there were no spa (hot tub or sauna) amenities. The location and views were great and the rooms were clean, but if you are expecting similar amenities to other Fosshotel locations you will be a bit disappointed.

We stayed in superior double room. Itā€™s spacious and clean. We had zero water pressure for showers. Itā€™s a bummer after we paid for the upgraded room.We felt it was not worth the cost. The location is also very remote. Not a great place to drive to, if you hit bad weather.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The property is gorgeous and well-maintained. The lady who assisted me when I arrived at the hotel was impolite and provided poor service. I had to return to the registration desk after being allocated my room, and there was someone else there who was really friendly and attentive. The smell of food from the kitchen permeates all of the rooms on the right side of the property, and all of my garments smelled like food. The restaurant is neither the finest nor the worst; it is simply ok, but there are no other options available artound. The best thing about this location is the facilities, which are nicely maintained. Aside from that rude lady, everyone else was really nice and attentive.

Absolutely Gorgeous Hotel
We loved this hotel, and the fact that it was nestled away from everything in the area. We were upgraded to an ocean room on-site, the restaurant, while expense, was delicious, the room was comfortable, and had everything we needed. Breakfast had a variety of options and the staff was friendly, too. Our own downside was that the shower was a bit small and had an all-in-one body wash/shampoo. That wouldn't stop us from staying again; we'd just bring our own next time. Out of all of the hotels on our 10-day trip, this one is definitely in our top 3 favorites.
