This is a great spot next to 4 casino, the chair lift, shops, food, and beach. Met the directors wife checking in and she was super helpful getting us in a little early, offering helpful tips for getting around and even offered some local cookies - maybe the best I’ve had to boot. Our room was super clean and pretty new - looked recently remodeled. AC worked great, fridge and coffee makers stocked with coffee were perfect to start the day. Had a microwave and all the stuff you’d expect at any hotel. Thanks for a great stay! Room 27

It’s a cute little place! Well updated and accommodating! The bed was a bit softer than my back can stand but otherwise it was a great stay! The location is super convenient and parking was easy. My children enjoyed the pool greatly and I appreciated the contactless check in.

this property is quaint. If you are over 5'5" everything is small., Shower, bed everything! The worst is we stayed for 5 days and no maid service unless you want to pay $25/each time.
