Would not recommend

Location was perfect for being so close to the beach. The room was horrible from time we walked in. There was a horrible smell and found small portion of mildew spot in a/c and curtains. The bed had sand in it, I understand I’m at the beach but I would expect clean sheets when first arriving. The towels were stained and extremely rough.

This place is perfect if you’re looking for a convenient spot close to the beach. There are some things that can be upgraded for a better experience. For one, the sheets while I believe to be clean did have stains. The shower head fell off while showering. The shower curtain needs to be replaced due to mold growth on the bottom.

breakfast is rationed and i felt guilty getting my kids both pancakes with cereal. had a hair in the pancake so glad i got them something else. not self serve like other hotels. window in room was left open and no screen on it. brought a couple bugs and dust in. mold in the bathroom shower and missing tiles on the bathroom wall towels are older. parking was almost unattainable at the hotel however parking on the street was easy to get walked to the beach which was awesome and brought toys from the hotel with us. the male owner was very nice. overall this visit was not as comfortable as my first time here

pls. note that the first day of the stay was great due to a female staff named Leslie - not sure how to spell. she was welcoming, provides door to door services, friendly, Next day so called manager Sean arrives. very rac*st against non-white, refuses to provide service door to door, rude when asked. the owner needs to be told that this live-in manager refuses to be bothered with service request that is known to be part of the job he is being paid for. despite being paid to provide service like replacing items or toilet paper, he responds rudely when asked. this inn is in a beautiful place across the beach. but if you all want a pleasant experience, ask when only Leslie will be working. or find another place. btw do not believe the free breakfast they tack in their description. by this manager's bidding, they ration food like guests are in a gradeschool lunchline. only 2 tiny pieces of pancakes n no more. there is no breakfast spot after you get your little tray on line. they charge too much for this lousy service. STAY AWAY if you want a relaxing vacation.
