We took an evening walk, a day time walk (lovely railroad trail nearby) and even used the public bus one day. Each was easy to navigate and we felt safe and comfortable. The facility was basically quiet, except for the sounds of our upstairs neighbors footsteps or the loud water pressure from the showers next door,

Older property, but it is a wonderful stay. Staff is friendly, rooms are clean. Love the fireplace in the room. Garden in front is lovely, had my coffee out there, watching the blacktail deer. Walkable to beach in a quiet tree lined neighborhood. Would definitely stay here again.
