Some of the nicest and hospitable people ive met in a very long time and a clean well maintained area. Great location to go wherever you like. Day or night walking distance to restaurants and different beach spots for hiking or just enjoying nature.
I wish we could have stayed longer.
Great renovated motel under new owners! Perfect for Covid because of no shared air and all individual units. Spotlessly clean and staff was warm and accommodating! Blocks from Shell Beach.
The hotel was newly renovated. It was very clean and the staff was extremely nice. I would recommend this hotel for a stay at the beach.

Clean, great location, proximity to zero Mexican restaurant
Could use a new shower head
We were greeted by warm friendly staff. Room was clean. Appreciated the fan. Excellent location.
The shower head and low water pressure. Water temperature fluctuated surprisingly during shower from ice cold to super hot.
clean hotel, room had a great atmosphere, staff were accomadating
seems over priced, location was in between
The hotel was awesome!! The managers,went above and beyond to make our anniversary weekend extra special. The rooms are in the process of being updated, but overall VERY clean and quaint hotel. Will definitely be staying there again!!

Not at all
Super location, comfortable rooms, charming extra touches, friendly service, adorable cat.
No. We'll definitely be back, and I recommend this property when anyone is looking for a cozy, fun place to stay.
It's a charming boutique experience with an especially attentiv staff.
The room was recently remodeled.
Such a unique hotel, fantastic staff, and amazing location.
The room far exceeded my expectations.You can tell they put a lot of effort into making the rooms beautiful and providing everything a guest could possibly need. It was absolutely beautiful and the staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating.
The room was renovated and very cute. The bathroom was very comfortable. The guest comfort was an obvious priority in this hotel. Parking and loading was easy and quick. Loved the easy check in.
Our king bed as a little tilted on one side, however it was extremely comfortable. There was also a very loud guest in the middle of the night, which of course could happen anywhere.
Room was clean and nice
Coffee pot didn’t work, I like me coffee at night?
Very well done remodel of a very cute older hotel. Pool was amazing!
Little bit of traffic noise in morning
