The location was perfect … a block from the beach and easy walk to restaurants and pier. It’s was quiet and clean on the property. Breakfast was good and fresh squeezed OJ was a pleasant surprise. Only complaint was that the eating area was way too small. Other than that I would stay there again for sure.

The breakfast offered was pretty bad. I went to go for one of the oranges (they were spoiled) since the meat and eggs seemed to have that freshly thawed out taste- Pool was 84 degrees so we couldnt get in..it'd be nice if they had heated it more since im sure price of "pool" is reflected in taxes/stay-it'd be nice to be able to use it. Aside from that-it was perfect spur of the moment place to stay.

My 2nd time staying here after a previous good experience. Staff i interacted with at front desk were all helpful. Breakfast was simple but nice, rooms clean (although mine could have used some artwork) and well equipped. Off street parking outside my room also a plus. Would recommend

Came to celebrate a birthday weekend here and I must say this stay exceeded my expectations!! We chose this inn because of their dog friendly accommodation & must say I’m so happy we stayed here! The inn comes with a complimentary breakfast that includes eggs, sausage patties, bagels, cereal, & sweet danishes that we enjoyed! Coffee & OJ too! In the evenings they offered fresh baked cookies that were delicious!! Bike rentals are offered free for 2 hours & there are so many things to do nearby! Would definitely stay here again!

I liked the room and the clean bathroom. The only thing is the toilet paper holder shouldve been in front of the toilet for easier access instead of reaching behind me. Also, i love the shampoo, Hair conditioner, & body wash. I asked for the brand so i can buy it online myself, but the front desk did not know. Also, it would be great to add a body mirror. The only mirror there was above the bathroom sink. Love the complimentary breakfast! Great tasting mini croissants, cinnamon rolls, coffee, and love those muffin eggs!! Overall, very clean facility. Great location! Friendly staff. Thank you!!
