Nice overall.
Easy check in and the facility is clean and reasonably well located. Main gripe is the bed AND the pillows are way more firm than what we are used to or see in most other hotels we stay in.

Hotel wasnice. Clean, pretty comfortable and location was great. Electrical outllet in bathroom needs to be replaced, plugs wouldn't stay plugged in, very dangerous and a magnifying mirror in the bathroom would have been nice.

Our room was super clean with quality updates that seemed new. Decor was well-appointed and the bed was very comfortable. We had a wrap around balcony with ocean and town views. The ocean breeze kept the room cool in the daytime and the fireplace kept us warm while enjoying the stars at night. Staff was hospitable and breakfast was excellent. It was a perfect stay!
