Spacious, clean, and good AC. Plenty of parking around back and pleasant staff. Very pricey for the Friday and Saturday night at $340 each, but the location is prime and it’s during peak season. Would stay here again

This hotel was small and sparse, but it was very clean and tidy. Everyone we spoke to was very friendly and helpful. They have ample parking because of an overflow lot. This little place feels cared for with pride and is a fabulous location.

Alfred

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Amenities
Parking was TERRIBLE!! The parking lot is too small to accommodate all the guests and most of the spaces are only big enough for compact cars. If you have a truck or SUV for the beach, you will find it very difficult to park. There is an overflow lot, but it is a couple blocks away. Also, the rooms need deadbolt locks on the doors. The doorknob locks are very unsecure. There is no coffee or coffee maker available in the rooms and no bath soap in the shower. Other than that, the rooms are nice and clean.
