We were super happy and impressed with how fast they had our room ready. We received a text at 10:30 in the morning that our room was ready and it was super clean and all around nice. We will definitely be back.

Friendly place for pets, although limited areas for pets to relieve themselves. If other pets then need to share and sometimes may be an issue depending on your pet or others. Convenience to surrounding areas like beaches and restaurants

Very clean place
Very nice clean space. Bathroom very very small. No room to put things on the sink and shower was tiny. A little expensive for the space. But the people are very nice and they have a club house room with Pool table and a pool. We did not use because we were only there one night.

Chelsey was absolutely great to work with, she advised that our room was ready for check in, we had a late check in and she did exactly as she advised she was going to do. She was also attentive to us needing towels and she provided us with them after hours. I’m so pleased with the whole experience!

Nice little studio type place. Very quiet at night, close to shopping and some restaurants. No place to walk nearby was a drawback for me
