Super cute and clean room, friendly staff, gorgeous views from my waterfront room. Everything worked except one side light by the bed, no big deal. Shower diverter installed backwards, just turn to cold setting to get hot water. I will stay here again!

The room was clean but it was room basic, there was a bucket for ice in the room but there were no cups in the bedroom or the bathroom. The bed was comfortable. I was told breakfast was donuts and coffee and since I saw a donut shop around the corner I was looking forward to a homemade donut. I was quite surprised to find the offerings consisted of store bought packaged donuts and pastries - mine had an expiration date of 4/6/26 and today's date is 4/22/26
