This place is a hidden gem! It boasts a unique atmosphere and an ideal location within walking distance of the beach and downtown's many restaurants and stores. We loved the thoughtful touches like the lavender sachets on the pillows and the happy hour food and drinks in the lobby upon our afternoon arrival. While the gym is conveniently located across the street in their sister hotel, it's still readily accessible. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel!

Happy Hour, bottle of champagne and water in room, breakfast, free parking, beautiful pool, property clean and well cared for. Rooms slightly outdated; but all the amenities mentioned above outweigh the beauty of the room.

This time was our fourth stay at this motel. We love the location, easy parking and friendly staff. The only issue we had is the humidity smell in the room (we left windows open) and also the absence of hot water later in the morning. I guess we should have taken showers earlier in the day.
