Great location & very nice front desk staff. Rooms was basic. Bed didnt have a comforter, the AC was finicky, and the pillows were paper thin. For the price, it was good.

When we arrived I talked to the front desk lady who said that even though I noted on my reservation that I needed a parking space, she said I should have called. She was so… rude. Clearly she doesn’t belong working in the hospitality industry. When I said, “So, you suggest I should park on the street?” She said she wasn’t suggesting anything. While it wasn’t so much what she said, it was as her tone that left a bad taste. This is not the way you want to greet guests. Everyone was nice after that first encounter. The room was extremely loud. We stayed on the first floor and the upstairs guests kept us up all night every night. I don’t recommend this Inn if you’re traveling with children. The location is nice and there are great restaurants within walking distance. You can’t beat the price. If you decide to stay here, stay in an upstairs middle room, unless you don’t mind noise.

We had a double room at the back of the hotel. While it was adequate, it felt very overpriced for what it was. I understand the beach is the main attraction and likely drives the pricing, but we were disappointed with the room itself—no view and very confined.

The room was comfortable. The beds were very comfortable and looked clean. The View from the partial view room number 205 was very nice. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I appreciated that they offered beach towels and chairs in other helpful tips about the area. The location is perfect.

The location was awesome, walking distance from several top rated restaurants/coffee shops and right on the beach! The staff was very friendly, and the accommodations were clean. As someone with young kids, we also enjoyed the sand toys, chairs and towels that were available for use. The hotel walls are fairly thin, so expect to hear some noise from outside and neighbors. It wasn’t a big deal for us since we were up early, but if that’s important I’d consider a top floor. Parking is as you would expect in a busy city, but we were able to find city parking nearby during our stay. We will be back!

Great location, close to everything. Simple, but very comfortable room. Loved that they had beach towels, umbrellas, boogie boards to borrow. Front desk was very kind to us, and in the interactions I saw with others.There were a few chairs and a table on the patio, and it was fabulous just sitting there and watching the waves and all of the people on the boardwalk. Would definitely stay here again.

An outstanding stay overall! From the great location to the beach/pier, to awesome restaurants just down the street, to a super professional & courteous Staff, to even the sitting around the firepit for 3hrs, making new friends!!!
