Although the first room wasn’t up to our expectations and the neighbors were extremely loud, the front desk staff were very kind and offered a different room and when that was just as bad with the noise they gave us one last room. If it wasn’t for that kindness in switching we would have driven back to Monticello. Thank you for giving us a quiet room in the end and being kind.

The front desk staff are very professional and friendly. The beachfront location of the Inn is also convenient to walk to restaurants or a convenient store. The hotel is older, but our room was spacious, clean and the beds were very comfortable. One thing that was disappointing is that I paid extra for an ocean view room. The bottom floor room that we had did not have a view of the ocean. I looked out onto a construction/stair repair site. If my 6 foot four husband stood on his tippy toes. He could see a little sliver of the ocean above the stairs and sea oats. That’s really false advertising to book that room as an ocean view room. (See photo attached of our view) There was an issue with the cable provider so there was no TV service. Normally I don’t care about that on a short beach vacation however there was a sports game we wanted to watch that night. They graciously offered us a different room or a credit. We opted for the credit in this case since the other room didn’t have enough beds to accommodate our family, but really should’ve gotten a credit for the lack of ocean view as advertised.

Great location. In desperate need of a deep clean and some updates. Didn’t use the coffee pot as it had a thick layer of dust on it. Actually, didn’t use any of the kitchen. Couldn’t use the dresser as the drawers had dirt in them and smelled moldy.
