The hotel looks very cozy but needs a BIG renovation... Carpet broken right at the entrance, towels in the bathrooms are stained and smell of "antique" as soon as you enter the hotel and obviously in the rooms as well. I staid during a pretty busy weekend so prices were pretty high compared to the quality offered.

Please look at your to go coffee lids. They leak . The first lid leaked all over the arm of my shirt for the day. I went changed my long sleeve shirt that i had on. Went back down ...got a new lid and a new cup of cofffee and sure enogh...it does not drip at first sip but soon...like my third sip the coffee dribbled down the front of my newly put on shirt What a mess and surely disappointed. Breakfast is not free it's including in the included in the price of the room. Breakfast is not free it is included in the price of the room so if you want to go with cheap lids and cups maybe charge a little bit more on the room so we don't feel so bad.

Really cute and clean place with lots of Victorian appeal. The staff were super friendly and professional. It’s just one block from downtown, so it’s nice and quiet but still super easy to walk to shops and restaurants. The continental breakfast was tasty. Overall, a great stay — would definitely come back

Area is ideal for anyone seeking beach views and downtown walks. Felt like it was a good location to have the most tourist-y experience while getting enough downtime from all the activities. We appreciate the staff for informing us that we forgot our laptop and then shipping it a week later. They offer yogurt parfait for bfast and wine around 4-6pm!
