The hotel and the rooms are really clean even if it's a old building. The rooms are small but it's not really important when you spend most of your time outside and on the beach.

Great location. Room was small but was all we needed. Bed and pillows were comfortable. The best part of this hotel is the proximity to the beach and the lounge chairs and umbrellas at the beach. I had emailed a question to the hotel but like other reviews mentioned. I never heard back.

A Lovely Piece of History in a Very Sweet Hotel

The staff at the front desk were just lovely. I could tell that they were always looking to make sure that we had what we needed and and were available to us at any time. I was really surprised by the restaurant the food was lovely it was a beautiful breakfast/brunch. I would definitely come back and stay in this hotel again.

The property is just what you would expect for this area, the room was small but as are most rooms on this area. We really liked how quiet it was yet close to all the action and the walk to the beach was so easy and great amenities to have two chairs and an umbrella included in the room rental. Staff was so kind!

This hotel is just ok. The good things are that the room is quiet, it's a block to the beach, and in a great neighborhood. The bad part is that the room was an old, concrete box. Small, cramped and claustrophobic. Luckily, we had beautiful weather and so only had to be in the room to sleep.

Hotel location was perfect. Checkin was quick. Room was clean and bathroom well appointed. Coffee machine was awesome. We really liked the ability to use chaises and umbrella at the beach. The amenities were supposed to include a cocktail… instead we got a 3oz pour of cheap Prosecco.
