Great location off the beach, walking distance to downtown. Service was great. Note that this is a historic building (built in 1894) and is decorated appropriate for a past era. On the weekend (in August 2025), there was good live music out in the restaurant part of the facility. It was nice to sit outside, enjoy a drink and listen to the music. My family and I very much enjoyed it here and we plan to go back.

Me and my Mother had such a wonderful stay here. the steps were alittle intimidating but the staff was more then kind to take us up on the elevator to our floor. the rooms were clean and had a historic charm. the location parking and beach passes were all great. I would 100 percent stay here again for our next years visit.

We had an excellent stay. The young man and woman who checked us in were very accommodating since we arrived early. They were also informative. The charcuterie tray ordered in advance was very good. The $8 breakfast vouchers was an unexpected treat where we thoroughly enjoyed breakfast. Every staff member we encountered during our stay was pleasant and helpful. The location is excellent being beach block and it’s an easy walk to many shops and restaurants.

Beautiful hotel right in front of the beach. Very lively at night with lights and live music. We had a city view, it was gorgeous to see all of the doll houses in the morning. Breakfast and coffee is so delicious!! Single room with king bed is pretty tight. No mini fridge:( Bathroom had no counter space LADIES! They easily could add a small table or shelf in the bathroom, but we managed. It’s definitely an old building, it shows in the water pressure but The room was very cute and stayed very cool all night. Overall good stay!

I loved staying at your hotel. The staff is outstanding. Jill, the manager, is incredible. My room had mold in the bathroom and the toilet was hard to flush. Other than that, the beach service was incredible. The location is the best and I loved the outdoor area and restaurant. The live music was great as well. Your hotel is a gem across from the ocean.
