Dee checked us in. She was very friendly and helpful. I forgot my toothpaste and she offered to get me some. I ended up getting some at the pharmacy, but I really appreciated that she offered. The room was nice and clean. We could see the beach and the bay. It was quiet and we slept well. I would stay again.
