Beautiful property, spacious rooms, solid selection of continental breakfast. Located on a quiet street across the street from a park and a block away from the shoreline. Staff was attentive and responded quickly. Will definitely stay again in the future!

The room was large, clean and stylish. Staff was so friendly. The location is near the beach. My only recommendation is to offer white, fuffy towels. The current towels were scratchy, thin and dingy.
