The room was good , the staff was excellent. Stayed one night after a day of fishing on the pier , only problem was hoping to wake up and get a nice cup of coffee but there was no creamer and the coffee looked like it was two days old , But other than that nice place to stay for a night .

Wasn’t expecting much. Just needed somewhere to sleep for one night but unfortunately no one got any sleep. Those beds were so uncomfortable I think I would’ve rather slept on the floor and for a blanket you get a curtain… no I’m not kidding. It’s a paper thin sheet that looks and feels like it was just pulled off the curtain rod and thrown on the bed and called a “blanket”. I think jail beds are probably more comfortable than that thing they call a mattress.
