The breakfast was include and it was more than what we expected- beautiful fritta, home baked good, pastries etc. they offered a full size fridge where we kept a few things in. Definitely book it if it's available!

Beautiful Victorian home with floral pastel decor and gracious dining room, complete with real china and flatware, as well as a covered porch with seating. Proprietor and staff very welcoming and responsive. Breakfast consisted of yoghurt, fruit, casserole egg dishes, bread, and coffee/tea/water was available all day. Neighborhood very walkable to downtown Main Street, and near beach and boardwalk, replete with pretty houses and gorgeous gardens. Free on street parking.

Extremely clean gem close to the beach and shopping/dining. Fantastic breakfast and friendly staff. The building has central ac and our room on the 3rd floor was a little warmer than I'd like. Other than that, great value and experience

Plenty of bikes to use as well as beach towels, straw hats, sunglasses and beach bags in the shed. The owners/ staff are kind and attentive. Great beach location with plenty of parking. It is meticulously clean which is important to me. The breakfast is served with real china and silverware. Everything is perfect. Ive stayed at their sister hotel, Ocean Plaza which is also excellent.
