Great Location. Less than two (2) blocks from the pier where all the site seeing starts. Breakfast is traditional waffles, baggels, coffee, O.J.etc... Pool and jacuzzi available. Room was good size and clean. Need minor facelift. I would stay there again.

The location is great! The property is quaint and funky. I had spied it when walking around one month ago and jumped at a chance to stay a couple of nights. The downside was the loud plumbing, weak shower water pressure, and the breakfast did not have any fresh fruit or protein, just sugary items.
