Old motel. Needs updating. Room was clean but the bed was terrible. Close to many good ammenities. But it is not worth the price. Room was so small you couldn't sit at the table and work. The staff was nice. good location. No soap, shampoo or coffee in the room. Out dated and the wifi was not good.

Super cute and clean room, friendly staff, gorgeous views from my waterfront room. Everything worked except one side light by the bed, no big deal. Shower diverter installed backwards, just turn to cold setting to get hot water. I will stay here again!
