This place is ridiculously overpriced. It should be $120 -150 a night . It has a lot of potential, but it seems the owners could not care less. I know one couple left soon after arrival. There are a number of cottages nearby to stay in which offer better value The restaurant below is in fact very good and even has live entertainment

Was cheaper than other motel/hotel stays and clean

It was noisy outside of my room at night and early in the morning. If anyone decided to stay do not get a room at the back of the building too noisy.

Two Nights Bday Weekend

This was a bday couples weekend for us and we stayed in room 7. At check in, the TV was not operational and there was no cold water in the shower. This was our first ever scalding hot shower at a hotel. Our concerns were discussed with Michelle who was responsible for the front desk and was very empathic and diligent about getting the issues resolved. However, the shower needs to be renovated as well as the plumbing. The room is small with a comfortable king bed and the AC works and we were grateful for this. The cost for this hotel is over priced. It’s not worth it.

This is a older but lovely little spot. The rooms are small but comfy. Very close to the beach, maybe a 5 min. walk. The staff were wonderful. There is a place to eat and they even had live entertainment, which was excellent. Your about a 10 min walk from the downtiwn area. It was a perfect spot for me and my friend.

Shameful accommodation

Shabby reception area. No one at desk . Room very small, dirty, peeling wall paper, filthy window ridges with one glass pane completely missing and damaged heating equipped. No coffee as advertised. No one to report to when we left 2 nights early.

I needed just a bed for the night. It suits my needs. The room is small in comparison to other hotels I've been in but when u consider the type of place and location it makes sense. It has got an onsite pizza place and another burger joint, so dont have to travel.far for food. The beach is like a 5 minute walk!

Advertised as having air conditioning. It was a window unit that was hardly working and so loud. Very dirty. No one to check you in. They leave the key in your room door, so anyone can go in. 2 yowels, no face clothes and no bath mat. I ended up sleeping in my clothes as bed had hair in it and i didn't want my bare feet touching the floor. No onsite parking available, so i had to park down the street. Dirty mattress left in fron hall.

Within minutes of Checking in we realized the bed was soaking wet and the ceiling was leaking water from the rooms above us. So far it has been acknowledged and they are trying to figure out what to do but we are out of our room with no answers as of now. Unhappy travellers with no solutions, the property is trying to fix it

Cottage Stay

4 of us stayed in the 2 bedroom cottage which was very nicely decorated. The unit had a full kitchen and queen size beds were firm but comfy. Lots of pillows which was nice too!! Most places do not have enough pillows. The kitchen was stocked with all of the dishes and cooking equipment needed. There was even a fresh tin of coffee! The only thing missing were some coffee filters. The beach is within easy walking distance. The little restaurant and covered patio was also nice. Even live music on the weekends. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely return!
