On our way to the reservation at the front desk the smell of weed really discouraged us from the get to. Second, the sight of water running from the restroom towards the bedroom was gross as well. There was a loud banging pole all night that kept us from falling asleep. If that doesn't discourage you from choosing another place, there was a small cross someone had painted with their finger that you can only see when you shine a light onto the bathroom door. Not only will I not go back, I'm going to warn everyone about the Light house Inn.

Affordable place close to beaches

For the price, it’s a great place to stay. It’s - a very simple hotel but it’s close to many beaches and restaurants and the staff were very friendly. It had all the basic things we needed and was clean when we arrived. Thanks!

It was nice and quiet. I would’ve liked maybe to have more sheets in the beds cause the room was really cold and we didn’t bring any sheets of our own.
