We would stay here again, and are planning to for our next trips! The hotel is cute and quiet! The rooms are in good shape and clean! The showers are alittle outdated, but I feel that comes with the location! Gene & Lori the managers are the sweetest!! We enjoyed our conversation with them! On low wind nights they have bonfires on the beach!! Overall this is the place to stay!!

Over priced for what it was.

Room was small and bathroom was smaller. Sink was in the room, not in the bathroom, there wasn't room for it in there.It was old. There was a musty smell. People were very friendly and helpful. We were only there for 1 1/2 nights and that was enough.

We had an issue with our toilet not wanting to flush. Reported to the front desk and they had it fixed by the time we got back to our room for the day. The carpet is very old or very dirt. The bottoms of my daughter's feet and mine were black. Other than that it was comfy and no big issues
