The hotel is old, but to be dirty is WRONG! The Bed cover had stains; the floor fan did not work. When I told the staff I was asked if the sheets should also be changed since the blanket on top was what I complained about. The "fixed" fan sounded like a helicopter! Then worse, electricity was out the entire day of Saturday. Utility company problem, but still no lights, hot water and we had a dinner to go to. No credit was even given for the inconvenience. Such a shame because it is a beautiful location.

Old but cute Hotel
When the previous owners had this hotel, they were trying to make it into a resort type hotel. They were doing a good job and we had stayed there a few times and liked it. They have since sold and on this trip it did not feel the same. it feels decrepit and it’s literally falling apart. The bed was extremely high w/a platform and it hurt your legs to get in and out of it. The best thing about this hotel is the pie at night and the complimentary coffee shop on the roof. We enjoyed our coffee and quiche in the mornings and even took a picnic and wine up there in the evenings. That’s the best part of this hotel.

This property needs some serious attention. It’s broken down, dirty, walkways are slanted and seem dangerous. The whole place is grimy. Though the location was nice, I will never stay here again. Especially for the price. Very expensive for such a run down place.

Great weekend experience!
We had a wonderful friend weekend here. The room was great and even had a daybed in the balcony! The staff could not have been nicer and the breakfast was terrific. We were a block from everything and slept to the sounds of the ocean. Can’t beat it!

Location is everything with this property. The place is a bit run down and the bathroom was not good with very old, worn shower and toilet. The top deck amazing with the views.

Could have been better
This was not a great time. The bed was very uncomfortable, the room was noise, walls are very thin, and we could hear people literally walking past our room. We had a corner room, and it was very noisy. The shower had NO water pressure, the shower head was broken and didn't seem to work. it seems the hotel is very dated and needs some care. We have stayed here before, and it was not this bad.

The parking was a problem durning the day. Definitely not enough for hotel guest. Also an elevator would have been nice for when we were carrying our luggage up. But besides those two points we loved our stay there and already have recommended it to friends and will plan to stay there again. Our room was awesome and you could not beat the view of the beach and ocean.

This is a one-of-a-kind gem. We discovered it several years ago and love it. Right across from the beach and every room uniquely appointed. The staff is dedicated, warm, and friendly. The roof top cafe in the morning is such a treat. You can see otters and other sea life while sipping your coffee. Any time of year this place is thoroughly enjoyable!

Disappointed this trip.
This is the least inviting room I have ever had here. The bathtub was all torn up. No hairdryer. TV was just too hard to work. They have removed some of the things I loved most on the sundeck. Just not worth the money I paid.

The staff was amazing, The rooms where very shabby and cute But not handicap friendly. There was lots of stairs, especially for those with disabilities like myself. But other than that very quiet and peaceful. Hot tubs are so worth it.
