The backyard with a deck was amazing…so beautiful and quiet. Just wonderful to have dinner out there! I did not know pets were welcome and so the two huge dogs next to us surprised and scared me. I need to read all the small print!

This spot has a great location and is very walkable to the ocean or downtown. However, it was not very clean. Specially, the bed seemed to not have been washed. It has long black hair and dirt in it. The place also has no sound proofing and you will hear everything going on next to you. I was in suite 1 and got woken up every time someone opened the door. The staff were great and super friendly though!

The organization and communication with this property is horrible! It is so unfortunate because we were so looking forward to our stay. We confirmed two weeks in advance our check in time and fast forward to many calls, emails, and follow ups, we arrive at our check in time to someone actively cleaning our room and had to wait outside for 30 minutes. To make matters even worse, they provided us the wrong code for our room and did not apologize for this confusion. All around horrible communication and truly so sad because we would have had a wonderful stay if the check in had gone smoothly.
