"Clean, modern. Self-checkin offered, hotel within minutes of spectacular cliff walk. Easy parking that gets crowded during the day as many tourists and come to walk the cliff. Easy walking, level walking path. Good restaurant. Lovely view from room with operable window. Quiet. Some staff were lovely; others a bit chilly.
