A Few Small Touches Would Help A Lot

I want to love this hotel, but... With just a few small things it could be so much better! Like, put a real coffee pot in the lobby. Maybe a few snacks, too. Get rid of the towels that have holes in them. Tighten the screws on the doorknobs. Real cups and glasses in the rooms. These are inexpensive, small items that would go a long way in upping their appeal.

Although there is not a lot of options for coffee and other things. Our room was amazing. We had the top floor, when we asked questions on where to go, he was friendly and told us where to see the star fish and just have a good time and food with in a decent time. I really just loved the view and how peaceful it was.

This could be a lovely small inn, but needs much more attention to details. The beds are too hard, the pillows lumpy, and the bath towels way too small and scratchy. Service is impersonal and there is no restaurant or food of any type available. What a shame.
