Great location, great place
Pros:

Stayed at Mason Beach Inn for a weekend girls trip, We were pleasantly surprised at the adorable inn, IDK what we expected but this place was great, The staff was welcoming and accommodating to all our needs, the pool was cute and heated. We didn't walk to the Arlington Theater for our show but we could have it was about 1.5 miles. We had breakfast on the strand which was a very close 5 min walk (Chads) was fantastic. Highly recommend this adorable boutique inn :)

Pros:

Location is convenient

Cons:

With the rate that I’m paying, a lot of surrounding hotels have breakfast included.
Also, I hope they do clean the jacuzzi and pool daily? Didn’t look so clean in the jacuzzi
