The property is on State St and is a short driving distance to the beach. There are numerous restaurants and bars in walking distance to the property. I didnt like that the room had a musty stinch that went away once the air conditioner was on. Cleanliness of the room was okay and the bed was comfortability was okay.

Extremely expensive for such a low-quality room. No hair dryer, no microwave, the room is very small — we could only open our suitcase in the bathroom.

I would definitely stay here again. My room was clean and had everything we needed for our 2 night stay . The A/C worked perfectly, appreciate that it’s dog friendly they even had a small potty area in the back to allow the dogs to relief themselves. Lots of dinning options all walking distance.
