The staff was nice. The room was ok. The floor could’ve used a little bit more attention. Overall it was a relaxing stay. It was quiet close to the beach and close to shopping.

I likes the colonial style of the room. Cleanliness could improve in the bathroom and the room had an overall beachy atmosphere. The cross breeze from the shared patio to the open windows facing the ocean view was amazing for fresh air. Parking is tight for my large vehicle but off street so I managed.enjoyed the walk to the beach and easy access to the parks.

The room standard is not much higher than cheaper motels, but it is okay. What makes the difference is a swimming pool with heated water and a hot tub, as well as great location - close to the beach, a lake, and a playground. My family spent a nice time there.
