Great location, safe, comfortable, and friendly staff. I would stay again.
Pros:

Great property. Good food. Friendly service.

Cons:

The pillows could be improved. The white showerhead in my room was cracked and spraying water over the top of the shower curtain. The hardware could be replaced and upgraded.

Cute room with a great view.
Pros:

Great view to the ocean. Cute place cute little room
It does include breakfast. We thought it was going to be a buffet style but they give you a menu with 4/5 options and they bring it to you.

Cons:

Doesn’t have the usual amnesties like a fridge or coffee maker. It doesn’t say on the description so that was on me. But we couldn’t even warm up some left over food we had because they said they didn’t have microwaves or nothing to warm up food on…anyways, The room itself was small, Windows were a little dirty.

Very beautiful Inn, I would definitely stay here again with the same great deal/price they offered.
Pros:

Amazing location, with walkability to many key locations and a few restaurants. The view from dining room was amazing way to start the day along with the delicious breakfast. Really appreciated the complimentary water, coffee and tea available throughout the day.

Cons:

The bed wasn’t too comfortable, and I’m glad I brought my own pillow. Take note if you have chronic back or neck pain like myself. Also shower was so small and shower head was locked in one position and stream hit the wall mostly.
