We had a great experience here from start to finish. It’s in the heart of the area. You could easily stay here for a weekend and not need your car the whole time. The pastry place attached the building is wonderful too. Also, I didn’t notice until we were checking out that they have a library and other items you might want to borrow for your stay in the office.. like, a tea kettle. They also provide towels and other beach supplies there.

The location of it was perfect! Only 3/4 blocks away from the beach walking distance. They also offered things for the beach as well which is a plus! Our room was clean and luckily we were able to get early check in as well so that was a plus! I’d stay here again for the location and price! Definitely recommend :)
