The rooms are clean and comfortable. The hotel is just across from a walking boardwalk and below is the beach! The views are amazing. The bed and pillows made it comfortable in order to get sleep and rest. No AC but it’s the coast so there’s a nice breeze throughout the day. Recommend you visit.

Quite beach front location. Pretty area but much too cold for swimming in the ocean. The hotel pool is heated and the they provide outdoor seating areas with gas fired pits between the building areas.

i loved everything about the stay except we were on the bottom level and the ceiling was so thin it was SO LOUD. we wanted to sleep in till 8, but at 6 the people above us were up and getting checked out and by 7ish the cleaning crew was there. i know they weren’t being loud on purpose but with the thin ceilings we heard every single move! also, the chairs in the room were really stained. the fireplace was lovely and warm and we appreciated the extra heater in the room. we fell asleep with the windows open and listened to the ocean. i’d stay here again, just on the top floor!
