Dawn is a fantastic host. If you're looking for something fancy, this isn't it. The building is cool and historical. It's a good family place to stay, the common areas are filled with toys for those of all ages. The views are amazing.

The full-ocean view is breathtaking. We didn't wa... read more

Keep in mind this building is old and the bathrooms and etc reflect that. It's also very much a hostel style situation, with communal bathrooms and kitchen areas.
