We had a great stay at this very small property. The breakfast was very impressive. The beds not as comfortable as I’m used to, but the price was right and being able to walk to the beach was a plus

We loved the newly renovated suites. Everything was super comfortable, the location was great, the room was quiet and clean with lots of space, and the front desk lady was wonderfully welcoming. Great overall experience.

Good place to stay for one night. They have a complimentary breakfast (waffles, breads, juices) from 6:30 - 10:00. The location is about a mile from the main downtown/pier area. I took a Lyft to get to that area, otherwise it is about a 20 minute walk. There may be a tram available to use instead, but I did not check into that. Not many restaurants close to the hotel. Plenty of parking available. I would recommend for a short stay (one or two nights).

Cute and clean with comfortable beds. I'm a light sleeper, so I really appreciate the quiet rooms. Everyone is friendly and helpful. If you can't find a parking space, let the front desk know and they will direct you to their attached lot.
