Lovely hotel. The location is excellent and right on the beach, it is walking distance to the pier, restaurants, etc. We stayed in the main building. Staff was very friendly at check in, and they lend you beach chairs and towels and buckets to take to the beach. It is not a ‘resort’ so there is no pool or anything, only a front patio area-which is nice and comfortable with great views- and there is a small cafe offering some food and drink options. We stayed in the main building and were comfortable. We will likely be back soon!

6/10 Good

Our room 100 was looking at first pretty awesome. However, it has a lack of maintenance, some things were almost falling apart, like the kitchen cabinet. The fan in the bathroom was pretty noisy. On the other side of the wall there is an office and we could understand everything since the walls seems so tiny and not insulated at all. Also, charging 25$ a night for the parking seems too much. For the pros, we appreciated the fireplaces on the deck, especially with the cold temperature we had.
