My husband and I truly enjoyed our stay at this wonderfully cozy inn (Room 5). Denise the receptionist was cordial. She didn't go out of her way to make us feel welcome. But she definitely was not rude. However the owner was extremely kind, welcoming and friendly. The room was impeccably designed and modern. The grounds were well maintained. Towels were readily available. The housekeeping lady along with the gentleman I think was possibly the maintenance worker were WONDERFUL!!! . They both were absolutely ACCOMDATING AND KIND. Keep them on your staff roster. Parking was convenient. The television, microwave, and refrigerator was a great touch. My husband and I look forward to another visit soon. God bless you abundantly!

Cute little inn, Beds were comfy, and very clean. Many restaurants within walking distance along with beautiful ocean views close by walls are a little fan but they offered earplugs which worked well. Only complaint is I felt a bit rushed out of my room - check out is 11 AM at 10:15. I was trying to finish getting ready and housekeeping kept knocking and wanted to know if I knew check out was at 11. Other than that, friendly staff and a great place to stay. I will be back!

It is a beautifully kept hotel and tastefully updated. One oddity was the bath/shower in rm 5, it was tilted at an angle which created a feeling of unbalance.
