I always love this place. It’s like stepping back to a 70s apartment with a salt water pool and everything just a short walking distance away.

The location is great, walkable to lots of little restaurants. Property is what appears to be single apartments turned hotel. It’s a little dated but gets the job done. Full kitchen is nice. No TV in the bedroom. No elevator but the stairs are manageable.

The hotel is in a nice location with walking distance to the beach and restaurants. The reason that I have an overall 2 stars is that the living room uses gas for heat and we can smell gas in the morning. I had to turn on the vent, opened the windows and door to clear out the smell. I don’t know if other rooms have the same problem but I will not come back.

Horrible Blinds for Privacy

The place is quite quaint, but the blinds are terrible. You don't have full privacy, because the blinds show the outside from each sides of the windows and people can see in. It smells like my grandma's house, vintage kinda smell. It was clean tho but very dated.

Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Gave us few tips about the area. We really feel welcomed. I would have given them a five star if not for the shower valve. It was so hard to even switch from shower to faucet. Also, had a hard time figuring out how to set the temperature of the water in the shower. Other than that, we loved the place.

Good location and spacious unit

The room was comfortable. Great little apartment with sofa, chair, small kitchen, table and back bedroom. The tub was a little slippery and the drain would back up so we were standing in water while showering. Overall though, great place to stay and walkable to the beach, dining, and shops.
