"Check-in was quick and easy. Very cute place, newly decorated it seems. I'd suggest taking down the dead hanging plants at the lobby entrance. Not a good first impression. Super close to the ocean and the wonderful bike trail that goes along the shore. Free parking, ice machine, coffee machine in lobby (but unfortunately it doesn't open super early like I needed) comfy beds, cute small patio. I would definitely stay again but request in room coffee maker. It's something even the cheapest hotels...
