The stay at this little hotel was just as lovely as ever. We try to get down hete every year and have always stayed here…silly but it now seems a bit like home…the staff are each as helpful as can be. No problems with our room at all…if I had a concern it would be that it got cold while we were there which was not expected and there was no blanket…but I’m more than certain it’s probably just seasonal But ho est our stay was lively, and we will see you next year and the temperature drop was

The room definitely needed some touch up work, especially in the bathroom. The towels were frayed and ripped. Bar was closed due to license issues. We've have stayed several times and this was the first Time we have had any issues.
