“Nestled beside a park and steps from the beach, the location struck me as ideal; rooms impressed me with their cleanliness and updated decor that still respects the building's character, it's a win. I noticed that a restful night's sleep seems assured, thanks to comfortable beds and quiet climate control. This inn really focuses on the essentials.”
