Charming old hotel, steps to the beach and walkable to the downtown area. The staff was friendly and helpful and the food at the restaurant was good. The old cage elevator is very cool. Rooms are small but well appointed - only wished for more towel racks for wet towels and bathing suits. Loved the free beach pass/umbrellas/chairs!

This hotel is well kept, but still old. If you're looking for modern amenities, like elevators or streaming services in your room, you won't find them! But if you'd like a clean room, quaint feel and walking to all the historic district options, this is for you.
