Rock hard beds and paper thin walls. Even with a car it's a 15 minute drive to anything worth seeing. Close to lots of beach access and clean.

Good last minute stay. Staff very helpful. Only negative was that the listing said there was a king bed but really only had 2 twins that could be pushed together. Staff offered to push beds together but we declined.

This is a smaller property and our room was a loft-style with the bed upstairs. Parking is limited and pretty crowded when all rooms are booked. Otherwise the room was quiet and we had a good night sleep. I am taking one star off because there is neither A/C nor heating in the room, except for a plug-in heater hidden in one of the closets, and the room gets pretty warm.

Upstairs bedroom with a downstairs bathroom was inconvenient. The entire place, especially upstairs, was hot until the later evening because there was no air conditioning. We would not stay there again.
