We had a double queen garden view room and could not have asked for more! Very spacious, clean, staff was wonderful and asked if we needed anything for our children. We loved the convenience of the beach being just steps away. Absolutely will be back again

The 2nd floor Bayview room is spectacular! Just remember there is no elevator and you have to carry your bags up a pretty high outside staircase.

It was our first time staying there, and we would definitely stay again! The room was small, but clean and quiet and with a nice view of the water. My husband is very tall and we need a king bed, so we were on the 3rd floor with a number of stairs to climb. (Not a problem for us, but if it is for you, you might want to check with the front desk first.) It was the quickest and easiest check-in/out of any hotel experience we've ever had. And the hotel is just a few steps away from a nice restaurant and a pub, both with water views on a very pretty street.
