Love staying here! The design of the hotel rooms is super smart and adds a touch of beachiness in an otherwise business driven town. Staff are kind and knowledgeable and being able to valet my car is such a perk.

Great lil hotel with friendly, welcoming staff!

Staff were so welcoming and helpful! Room was comfortable (though the room was chilly at night - wish we had an extra comforter in the room!) and the coffee station had drinkable coffee. Loved the Cafe Nero next door too.

Everything we needed for a short stay. Small rooms, but adequate. Under-bed storage would be useful for longer stays, except that one of the four drawers wouldn't open due to the night stand blocking it.
