The room was ok, unfortunately it flooded and leaked. We were given another room that only leaked a little, act of nature. We felt bad as most other folks left for other places and it wasn't the fault of the hotel, it was a really unusual storm. We were let down that they never asked about any of our stuff that got soaked by the flood and honestly knowing we had intermittent water availability throughout our stay, didn't offer some discount. I would still do the same thing again to try and help a business that was struggling because of an act of nature affecting them, just not this one.

Canceled Flight last minute room

Delta cancelled our flight after being delayed a few times due to storms. We snagged this room for the night. Front desk was great and gave us referrals for a quick dinner. Room was clean, bed was comfortable, and the air conditioning was prefect. Front desk kept us updated throughout the night as the storms rolled in. Would definitely stay again! They are within walking distance of the ocean as well!

The parking is cramped. The property looks nothing like the pictures. Access on to the Main Street is dangerous. Paint chipping on baseboards, sand in the beds. I will never stay here again.

This was a little bit cheaper than most other properties we looked at. It is definitely a nice option. The staff could not have been nicer. We really appreciated the snacks and coffee/tea service. We enjoyed the very close proximity to a nice beach, and the pool / hot tub. Our only wish would be since the floor is not carpeted, the beach is right there, and housekeeping is not daily- a broom/ dust pan. I personally would not have a problem sweeping the grit we tracked in every time we went outside. The room is very nice, and clean on arrival.
