The new updates are great! The bed was VERY comfortable, and the electric fireplace made for great ambience and warmth (especially since we visited during a VERY cold weekend). Check in was super easy and personable.
Perfect location walkable to the marina (for anyone taking a charter out of there), the viewing tower, and lots of great boutique shops and dining options.
The only (very minor) critique I would give to the owners is that a small shelf should be added in/next to the shower for toiletries :) (Not sure if this is the case for every room, but ours lacked one so I had to get creative)
We will definitely stay here in the future, and would easily book this hotel when we travel with our children.
