I loved this quaint hotel that is very old and filled with history, and it has a Miguel's restaurant right in the middle of the courtyard along with a number of small shops and businesses around the perimeter. Unfortunately, the check in staff did not fill us in on the wonderful perks you get when booking here...Free appetizers at Miguel's or Brigantine, hotel canteen allowance and other local discounts that I did not find out about until the morning we were checking out. We did get to enjoy an appetizer with our breakfast, but would have been nice to get that info at check in. Our room was compact, but the bed was comfortable and the room had all we needed. The in-room was coffee was actually quite good! The only other downside was the air conditioner unit was very loud and rattled when running, but was much needed during the local heatwave so we kept it on. This did make it a little challenging to sleep. Overall a good stay and I'm sure we'll go back again and plan more time to enjoy the local vibe!

Well-staffed with a super friendly and helpful team. Facility was very clean and well maintained. Location is perfect for those looking to enjoy the beach. Get a beach front room on the second or third floor and you can enjoy it without even having to cross the boardwalk to get to it.
