Staff was great!! The Oceanside room was amazing and very comfortable well put together. The first room we had was not as great, Room 24, it has no natural light, no couch in the livingroom, no tv in the bedroom and unfortunately we were there on a record cold days, so weren’t really able to be outside and enjoy the property and thus the 4 star. The back of the property with the ocean was amazing. I was able to fish off the back when the tide was in. The breakfast was delicious and the people working were the nicest people. I’d stay again especially on a budget.

The best thing about this hotel is the location. The bed was comfy and the linens were clean. The floor and shower were dirty from the moment we walked in. The shower was barely warm but the bathroom sink didn’t have cold water. Parking wouldn’t be so limited if there were designated spots for each room, and one vehicle per room. It’s made worse when people park dumb and far apart. The breakfast was just so-so but the people running the restaurant were really nice.
