View was good. That was it. The room had an Oder and we killed about 5 flea / nat type bugs. Stairs getting up to room were cramped. Entry was through the back door of the restaurant. Very strange setup

Even though it was off-season, we had a wonderful stay at the Stones Throw. It was great to have drinks downstairs ocean front, then go right up to your room.
