Our room smelled like weed. I let the maid know and she cleaned it up. It's not the quietest place, but the location is convenient to a lot of places.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
They call it an Inn but it was like staying at a motel 6. Very old! Bed was terrible, very hard, sheet were terrible! Above the door was a window with no cover. The light blared into your eyes at 6am. Bathroom so small it did not have room for 2 people trying to dress. Overall the price was way overpriced. Also the bay was not to be seen. It is on the corner of a seedy area with homeless guys walking around.

An older hotel that has been updated and remodeled. The room was very clean. Daily cleaning service was excellent. The room was very small. No fault of the property just something that might be helpful to know. Great location just a block or so to the beach and walking distance to many restaurants and bars. If you’re looking for a place to lay your head after a day at the beach, a nice meal, and a few drinks this might be the place for you! If you’re looking for a lodging experience chock full of amenities and luxury then you may want to consider elsewhere.
