Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Hot Breakfast was good with different hot items each day. Loved our King suite. In addition to paying a pet fee of $25 per night we also had to pay for parking which I thought should be included in the room rate. TV was limited as we couldn't find a football game we wanted to watch. Selection of restaurants within close walking distance.

The views are the best you will find. You can lay in bed and hear the tide and see the ocean. The rooms are extremely clean and the property is well maintained and safe. The neighborhood surrounding is comfortable and safe and we walked the neighborhood and beach every day. The location is a short drive to several cities for shopping and dining. If you want to stay close to the hotel, the Fisherman's pier and restaurant are within steps. Great location!

When we arrived, we noticed the room faced the street so was noisy, however, staff was accommodating and moved us to a less noisy location although didn't have the same type of room available. Breakfast was great, good selection with friendly staff. Excellent location!

Beautiful location and a quaint boutique hotel. The only con was the TV wasn’t working even after resetting and had very few channels and there is no internal kiosk for emergency needs such as pain medication. Otherwise, a beautiful and peaceful place with nice staff.
