Perfect little beach hotel close to the beach! Loved it!
Pros:

The property was the perfect size and was super cute! The restaurant was wonderful and the bar staff were great! We had good food & drinks and a fun afternoon while waiting for our room to be ready. The bartender would not let me pay my bill until I checked in to my room so that I could get the 10% discount on my food. He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience. The hotels proximity to the beach was perfect!! And the beds were super comfortable!

Cons:

The front desk attendant was unfriendly. She did not smile or engage in conversation. I asked if we could check in a little early and she said, “no, we will text you” in a rude tone. I also didn’t like that the front desk did not open until 9am and we ran out of toilet paper and had to use Kleenex. We also could’ve used more towels.

It was a great stay and cannot wait to come back.
Pros:

We enjoyed the location to just about everything we were there for. It was quiet and clean. And the beach was a two minute walk. What more could you ask for.

Cons:

So the only issues, the beds were small. Both of our husbands did not fit in the beds. They were both over 6 feet and it was tough sleeping. I had to sleep on the couch because my husband had to lay diagonal across the bed. (The full size bed) Also, they complained the shower stall was very small. It is, but not enough to bother me. So maybe these things are more important to others, i was ok with it. The husbands not so much. But I will not change MY scores.

Old, mattress old, worn out. Door to bathroom was a 24-28 inch door (closet door) , misled by “balcony’ and “view” . No
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Advertised balcony, paid extra for balcony and there was no balcony off the room. It was a walkway, outside that had no view
