A great place to relax

Our room was clean and quiet. There was a nice balcony with a view. The kitchen was large and functional. There was plenty of hot water. The coffee at the breakfast service was great. The bed was a little soft but OK.

It can be classified as "shabby chic" as my girlfriend put it, but frankly I didn't want to leave. We had the suite that has the kitchen, large deck, fireplace-- I know I could have stayed longer. Really the only thing missing it was dish towels and a dish rack to make cleaning our dishes easier. I'm not even sure people realize that there were actually utensils available. It made it very easy to not just stay here but make it feel a little bit more homey.

Pros: Friendly and attentive staff Clean and well-maintained rooms, Comfortable beds Good breakfast options Small work table for productivity Cons: Small/Tight parking spaces Outdated TVs with poor reception Noisy ceiling fans Overall, we had a comfortable stay, but I feel the price is steep for what is provided. The hotel's proximity to the beach is a definite plus, making it a great choice for beachgoers. But if you're visiting for other reasons, there might be better options.

We will not return to this property. We have stayed there for many years. In our experience , the owner/manager now, doesn't value return guests and appears he is rarely at his property. We have many other options for staying in that area.
