Wonderful

Fun walkable area of town. Beautiful view. Only problem. Paid for a late check out. Left our room at 11:30 . Even told the housekeeper next door we had a late check out. Came back in a half hour. Our room was all made up. We had taken our luggage down and needed to use the room to take care of medical needs before we left.When we told the front desk. Thry said sorry that happrned to uou but no refund. Should have just used it anyway but we didnt. Bummer.
We were there for a wedding and had a BLAST! You couldn't ask for a more beautiful location right on Short Sands. Staff was awesome, rooms were clean - definitely will return!
Nice facility and friendly staff. Really enjoyed that they had gotten into the Halloween spirit. Lots of decorations throughout. Also, nice to be able to walk out to the beach and watch the sun rise in the morning. We enjoyed our one-night stay. We ate in the pub and the service and food was good.
We had a wonderful stay. The hotel is beautiful,
Location was perfect. Next to the short sands beach. The restaurants and shop are close.
The view from hotel was stunning.
Could see the ocean from our room. There were wood beach chairs outside our door and they have a nice grassy area with wood beach chairs across the street overlooking the beach and sunrise. Staff was great! (Autumn). No shortage of towels. Very nice.

Nice ocean view. Bar was fun. Food was good. No elevator in the portion of the hotel we stayed in.
Upon arrival, we were upgraded to a four bedroom house, which was an amazing surprise for our family with three small children. The hotel itself is in a great spot, with ocean views and a cute walkable town. Would definitely stay again!
It is a beautiful location, quaint older property. Conveniently located.
Rooms are clean. The beds are comfortable, although a bit high for me at 5'4''. The pillows were too thick for my personal comfort, with 4 pillows per bed, it would be nice to have an option of a thinner one in the mix. Overall love staying there and have stayed multiple times.
Probably the cleanest room I have ever stayed at! The Hotel and its views are amazing!! We stayed in the motel building and it was everything we wanted!! The grassy area just across from the hotel is amazing and perfect to sit and watch the ocean!! Love every minute!!!
Nice view of the Beach and Ocean and convenient to shopping. Parking was also easy. Stayed three nights and cleaning services were not available. Also, a maintenance issue was reported on the first day with no response. That said, it was a very enjoyable stay.

We stayed in the main building. Definitely needs renovations. The bathrooms could use an update. The toilets were low profile. New toilets are higher which makes it easier. Also the shower and tub needs updating.
