Place was adquate, beach access was great, breakfast room under construction so probably will be better. It is an older Inn. Would highly recommend staying on the second floor with beach view ! Pool area welcoming. Pleasure pier is walkable.

Staff were friendly. Breakfasts were refrigerator cold including gravy on the biscuits and gravy. Milk was SOUR. Not much choice to choose from. The rooms had no hair dryers and sink barely drained. Rooms were clean but look dirty because they need updating.

I reserved the room with a private balcony and it was perfect. Homie beach vibes and the PERFECT spot to watch the sunrise. Enjoyed a nice glass of wine and watching the waves roll in. Can’t wait to book this room again.

Really enjoyed the Beach view room on the second floor. Breakfast was hot eggs, sausage, biscuits and gravy and the lady there is awesome! She makes the start of the day bright and fun! All the people we talked to were super nice. The room had retro looking frig and microwave, was a good size with even a small table and two chairs and the bed was comfy. Location can't be beat as it's right on the Seawall. And we parked close to our room. It's not a luxury hotel but it's got everything we needed, great people and clean, and we stay here often. I would highly recommend staying here.

I actually really like staying at this place. It’s clean and it’s really fun. I love the connected restaurant the location can’t be beat. Maybe random… But I really wish that upgrade their 2 foot chess pieces in their yard… he tried really hard to make it work, but they definitely need a whole new set

The room was made to look nice, but there were live bugs in the tub, dead bugs on the shelve above the bed, and the door had a big gap letting sun and wind in. The carpet was dirty and under the microwave there was food and liquid under it. Even though there was stricken noise ordnance that was supposed to be in place it was loud at all hours. We slept in the car!
