Great option for price

Great location and modern rooms for the older building. Only complaint was the fragrance of cleaner was pretty strong (scented) and it was too much for me.

Wonderful one night stay, we checked in late and was able to utilize the no contact check in which was nice. Room was beautiful and clean, robes were very comfortable and it left us wanting to return for a several night stay…not to mention you’re across the street from the water which was beautiful both at night and in the morning.
