The room was nice, nothing super fancy but the kitchenette had all you would need. The location is nice, you can't see the ocean but it is a very short walk to the beach (across the seemingly rarely used train tracks). It is 1-2 km from the center of town. Overall, very good value!

Fantastic location, just a literal skip over the train tracks and you’re on the beach! Everything was pristine in the room, very comfortable. Quick drive into town with tons of shopping and food options. The seal colony nearby was a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend the Alpine View for a lovely stay!
