Beautiful, fun, quirky!
Pros:

The location was wonderful. Within walking distance to everything.

Cons:

I felt very safe overall, but the doors could use more locks. The a/c worked great but was super loud while trying to sleep.

Cool theme, unique rooms.
Pros:

The price was good & view was great. Themed rooms were cool.

Cons:

Rooms were clean-ish. Tub was not thoroughly cleaned. Several ants throughout. We only stayed one night, never brought food in, think it’s just from the location.

We arrived at midnight and made arrangements with the host that he was gonna leave the door unlocked for us, which was k
Pros:

The location was great. Only a few blocks from the beach.

Cons:

The room was extremely dirty. The sheets were stained. The shower was full of mold and gross. The walls were filthy, we stayed the first night and went somewhere else for the second night. We only stayed the first night because we arrived at midnight and had no other choice.

We enjoyed our stay very much!
Pros:

The staff was wonderful and always helpful and informative. We were in the room with the hot tub (we hadn’t expected that) and it was a great amenity. We loved the wrap around porch area and the privacy that it gave us.

Cons:

Nothing

Lovely place and a very refreshing break from corporate hotels and soulless Airbnb‘s
Pros:

The place was absolutely charming, each room represents a different theme and they’re all done very artfully - not kitschy.

Cons:

Skylights. Traveling at summer solstice, the room was very bright very early…
