We stayed two nights. The first room they gave us was musty and the vent didn’t work in the bathroom. We couldn’t stay in that room due to allergies and were happy when the front desk staff helped us out. They moved us to a much better room in their Bed And Breakfast next door and we had a restful night. Would recommend staying in the B&B if you have an option! Great beach access too.

The overnight desk clerk was so helpful and they were very knowledgeable about the area and suggested several eateries that were quite enjoyable. The same could not be said for the morning staff or for the meager “continental” breakfast that was offered.
