Bay Shores Peninsula Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Very clean, very comfortable, nicely appointed rooms. Very nice coffee/sandwich counter downstairs with great breakfast options. Awesome extras (beach bag, cooler, beach chairs, bicycles) and rooftop relaxing spaces with fireplaces, comfortable couches and chairs, mood lighting, digital music, and a tv for you to log onto your streaming service. Water view wasn't much, and on-property parking is a pricey. Some street parking is free, some is hourly; look for the white painted corner marks-- those spots require payment between 8am and 6pm."
