Here’s a grammatically improved version of your text: “Very nice and clean hotel. Within walking distance of many restaurants, and just a 15-minute walk to the beach and Urth Caffé. There’s an absolute gem nearby — the Italian restaurant Piccolo.” Let me know if you’d like it to sound more formal, casual, or tailored for a review site.

Definitely more of a motel but the staff are kind and helpful. We originally booked one queen bed but it was way too small for two people to sleep, we got lucky and the staff were able to get us a room with two queens beds. That room was wonderful. Very quiet and excellent bath towels. Excellent location. Free parking.

Such a cute little place to lay your head. It was pretty quiet, beds were super comfy & it had a nice vibe. Easy access to beach on foot, or a quick uber ride. We’d definitely stay again.

A resort you are not

Charging a resort fee is outrageous. You get nothing for it. It is not a resort. Then you charge 3$ for a bottle of water. Over priced.
