    • This is a small family run place just a block from beach. They offer free bikes and beach chairs. Very refreshing!
    • EVERYTHING!! Location, Staff, Room, Bed, Decor, Bathroom, Closet, Kitchen, living space!!
    • The charm, location and staff.

    Cons -

    • The hotel employee attempted to break into my room 9 min after check out and repeated threatened to call the police, if we did not leave immediately. We had overslept by accident and were quite respectful guests. Never been treated so horribly.
    • Nothing!!
    • The room is a little tiny.

    Beautiful lobby, room, pool, views, and location

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 8-22-2017

    It had a small amount of units which made if very comfortable. The location to the beach, pier, shops, and boardwalk was very convenient.

    10CreightonPosted on: 1-9-2017

    Great location. You can walk to beach, the funk zone for wine tasting or Shopping on State Street. The room was spacious with a small kitchen, walk in closet and nice bath. King bed was excellent. The tv had access to Netflix. Staff was very friendly.

    10JeffreyPosted on: 12-28-2016

    Staff was really friendly and terrific - rooms were terrific - bicycles were available at no charge!

    10Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 4-25-2016

    LOVED this place! Extremely clean, most courteous staff. The bikes were awesome to get around on because of the great location just a block off of the beach and close to State St. Will stay here again! Cozy courtyard areas to relax with wine or coffee

    Good location close to the water and some good places to eat.

    This is the smallest hotel room I've ever been in. The closet dorr had been removed and replaced with a curtain as it couldn't open with a queen sized bed in the room. Granted I am 6'6' tall but my hear touched the ceiling in the shower. SMALL!

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 12-4-2015

    Great location, value, and vibe. Incredibly clean.

    Walls a bit thin, so I could hear neighbors who arrived late. But overall, that wouldn't deter me from booking again.

    10AshleyPosted on: 8-6-2015

    Fantastic location, very quaint and clean, lovely foliage outside and patio space. Very well taken care of for a small inn.

    10EfrenPosted on: 4-10-2015

    Room was beautiful with a cute kitchen and very comfortable bed. Staff was very informative on sights, restaurants and suggested a nice trail to hike. Hotel provided us with bikes we could borrow and provided other beach accessories. A 10 over all.

    cant complain.

    9Verified Hotel GuestPosted on: 2-24-2015

    We loved the welcome basket we received in our room upon arrival. We also enjoyed using the free bicycles the hotel had available. The staff was friendly and went out of their way to assist us. The location was great, close to both the beach and downtown.

    No complaints we would stay their again and recommend it to others.
