The stay was absolutely wonderful! We stayed in a king room overlooking the courtyard, and it was both clean and cozy. Breakfast baskets were available each morning, and the staff was friendly and welcoming. The location is perfect, just a short walk to the beach. Overall, an amazing experience!

This was a cute spot, and the price was great for the location. I do suggest asking for a room on the second floor though. The walls (and floors) are very thin, and we slept terribly because the folks staying above us woke us up at all hours moving around their room. I was amazed how loud it was. Great staff and service at this hotel, though!

This hotel was great! I was in town for a conference and it was in the perfect location. The area is safe, the night time walks are beautiful. The hotel staff is very accommodating. Notes: There are no elevators so if you have accessibility options, you'll want to ask for bottom floor. The dishes in our room were all dirty and just put back in the cupboard; I just re-washed everything. Overall, I'd stay here again. It's a nice quiet place close to the ocean and the zoo.
