We have been staying here for over 40 years and we love it!! Close to the beach, shopping and many choices for food. The staff was great, they went above and beyond to help our stay be the best.
Only a couple of blocks from the beach - can’t beat this location at this price! The place has everything you need for a comfy stay. Lots of cafes and restaurants in walking distance. Will come back here again 👍
I stayed here to do in depth research and writing. the room was comfortable and roomy, the staff was incredibly helpful, and the location near the ocean was soothing. i loved my stay!
Lovely kitchenette room with second, private bedroom; personal patio and community patio with amazing view of beach and ocean from high on a hill!
Kind and helpful staff. Beach chairs and boogie boards freely borrowable.
Easy access to beach, coffee, and ice cream. Pretty neighborhood. Short walk into town. Could not have been nicer!
Very clean, quiet and walkable to the beach and dinjng. Kitchenette had everything you need although we weren't there long enough to enjoy tgat. Highly recommend!
