Such a great location and cool hotel. Small but such a fun island vibe. Hotel needs major updates. I understand being older and that’s fine but a few things look likes people just see it and over look it. Just fix it. Would be such a better location with better reviews if someone just took the time to fix a few things. If you do not keep room super cool then the humidity will have your pillows feeling soaking wet. When we came in pillows were wet. Was still some sand on a beach where we were sleeping putting our bags. I think housekeeping just needs to be a little better. Not sure if they are lazy or rushing.

Good old beach front IN.

Ok the building is in need of general maintenance(guard rails are lose, the sink in our room was moving around, lose steps etc) yes they have WiFi in the rooms but no internet connection, the windows have blinds but no curtains so the out side light comes in all the time. The staff was very good and friendly

This property is in a stellar location, but it has been worn hard and hung up wet. The bathroom sink would not drain, and the shower curtain kept zero water inside shower. Mostly the bathrooms need to be gutted. The beds were decent and I would add a blackout curtain.

Won’t be back.

The door to the room would not close well, which is a huge safety issue. The restroom door would not latch at all hindering any sense of privacy. Several things in the room were broken and not repaired such as in the shower the shelf had been broken off. And housekeeping did not come after we asked.

Beds were very comfortable with crisp clean sheets. Room smelled freshly cleaned. The light to the bathroom was on the outside of the bathroom and a little annoying in the middle of the night because it shines the light into the bedroom. Loved that clean towels were available anytime for guests to grab.

On the beach with easy access to everything. Freindly staff and prompt service, very nice continental breakfast in the mornings. Though a little run down, the room was very small and shower curtain lets water onto floor requiring an extra towel. There is a larger room available that faces the ocean but of course cost more. Pics in expedia shows the large room.

Location was excellent, no attendant after 10pm. Free breakfast in the morning started at 0730, not 0630... no place to sit and eat, although breakfast was pancakes and cereal. Did like code for door instead of room key. Staff friendly.

The location of seaside inn is the only good thing about it . No balcony rooms at an ocean front hotel is ridiculous. The staff was not helpful, the rooms are very very small and when it rained one night the rain came I. Under our door . One morning the cleaning guy came in without knocking and we were scared . Over all not a good experience . We will not be staying there again

Cozy hotel on the beach

The room was dated, and we experienced a leaky ceiling in the bathroom. Room was tiny and a little tough to navigate with 4 adults. The worker at the desk was extremely helpful and she really took the time to make our stay right.

The room was ok, no chairs at the table on the wall. The bathroom the toilet was not secure kept trying to fall over, sink same way. Shower kept flooding because shower curtain was too short and the rod was installed backwards, the bottom trim by shower exposed a hole and was in terrible condition exposing chipped paint and half the wall was gone. The bathroom was in poor condition the room was in ok condition it served it’s purpose we slept and left but if staying in for a longer period of time would not be ideal.
