This hotel was so cute and in the perfect location. The room was super clean and so spacious with a perfect view of the ocean. The staff was so friendly and accommodating, and they even had a cute little free library by the office. I would (and already have) recommended this hotel to anyone and everyone. It just doesn't get more perfect for location, comfort and class.

Staff was friendly, and checkin was smooth. The room was pretty clean. There was splatters that look like blood on the patio. Also the thermostat we set at 68 and during the night the heater stayed on until the room was 80 degrees. We had to keep the door open to be comfortable.
