オーシャンビューといえばココ

知り合いが以前、利用したことがあり非常に良かったということでお世話になりました。値段もリーズナブルで料理が特に素晴らしい内容でした。どうやら料理長の方が、料理の鉄人でお馴染みの道場六三郎さんの孫弟子だったそうです。その肩書きに負けず劣らずでした。ただ、館の築年数が結構経っているのか 若干、古さを感じますがそこも味と捉えられるのであれば申し分ないと感じます。マニュアルではない、人情味のある接客がまた、良かったです。

Great hotel with great ocean view

Amazing view from the room. The hotel is equipped with an elevator which was helpful with my 81 year old mother who cannot walk too well at times. The service staff was pleasant and kind. Dinner and breakfast were very good! The only disappointment was that the check-in at the hotel is after 3 pm, contrary to the description on the hotels.com website.
