Prospective Visit to Somnath

Dear Redditors, For an expected visit for one day at Somnath in the month of February before Mahashivratri, I am seeking your help on following points: 1. Recommended place of stay in Somnath? 2. Best time of the day to visit the temple? 3. Any meditation facilities around temple? 4. How to go from Veraval to Somnath, is it walking distance? 5. Any food recommendations will be appreciated 6. Additional information (things I should be cautious of). Thanks!
