Great value

One of the best values for the money. It is a simple place, but the location, amenities and level of service is terrific. The breakfast was exceptional, especially for the relatively modest price of the Inn. Overall, I’d highly recommend!

Staff was super helpful, very welcoming. Pool and spa was crowded so we didn’t get to use. Breakfast was nice. Bacon, sausage, scrambled egg, waffles, banana, Apple, yogurt sausage gravy and biscuits. Coffee was good and cookies were a nice welcome. Bed sheets weren’t 100 cotton which is rough for me but others in my family didn’t mind. Room was clean. Right off the highway.

Nice pool alcove around a smallish pool. Towels available at pool. Welcome coffee, tea or cocoa and cookies available near check-in was a nice touch. The comfortable bed and free hot breakfast worked for me. Have not yet received the emailed receipt I requested at checkout.

The best things about this property were the free bakery cookies (delish!), and the attached resteraunt. The full breakfast and the dining area were great. Staff was very helpful. The price for the night was quite reasonable, esp. considering that it included a full breakfast. We paid double that in Seaside, & breakfast was pretty bad. Only negative was being able to hear the people next door.
