Enjoyable trip, service was good, both of us were happy with our experience at Scenic, well done
Pros:

Nice location, close to the ocean, views were good, room was average, fit for purpose. Appeared clean and tidy. We loved the nice chairs and a table situated by the window, very practical and well placed

Cons:

We had a light that was illuminating a sculpture pointed at our window from the outside, annoying. bathroom a little primitive, shower curtain kept shutting in the door. fan heater on the wall, dated and cheap. My experience working in the health field with the older adults falls and fractures, an over the bath shower could be dangerous for elderly people to access, grab rail alright but more support for people exiting the bath , walk in wet floor shower area more appropriate. Bathroom need upgrading. An Occupational Therapist assessment of the bathroom might be worth while

Pros:

The location and the views

Cons:

The renovation work was very loud, only for a few minutes, but it woke me up as I was taking advantage of having a 2 night stop over and sleep in!
