The owner needs to address wifi/cable issues. Staff had a difficult time checking us in. Our cable went out twice and our selector was not sufficient enough to math changes . Therefore , we had to ask front desk to come to our room and address. Also, we were out for the day and our room key didn’t work. There were people down our hall that were smoking and smelling up the place . I notified the front desk and they addressed. Our room was clean enough just dated. There were homeless people lying on the side of Ty hotel and parking lot. I have a small child and he was very concerned.

Stayed here a few times. Really like the place. Friendly staff, clean rooms and a great location for walking around town or to the pier and beach. Breakfast is good too. Will hopefully return again.

We’ve stayed here many times and it has sentimental value, character, price, as well as proximity to Main Street, for us. We miss that our favorite breakfast place, The Harvest Cafe, closed. We stayed on the first floor for the first time, and since the floor down there instant carpeted like it is upstairs, we heard the cleaning carts clunking down the tiles early in the morning. Also, the sowers in this place are primitive, and there are no handicap grab bars on the shower/bathtub walls for my CP partner. Despite these few gripes, Inlove this place, especially if I can stay upstairs!

Nice enough hotel. My only complaint… they don’t turn the lights off on your balcony and the drapes don’t cover the windows/slider completely so it was shining brightly in my room all night. I asked if they could be turned off and they said no. It really impacted my sleep.

Breakfast was terrible. They had bread, warm yogurt, make your own waffles, and bananas. No protein. Room was okay but needed to be refurbished. Old and a bit moldy.

The price for what you end up getting isn't worth it. This is more of a Motel than an Inn

The breakfast was far too limited with moldy bagels and expired chobani. There should have been hot breakfast. Motel 6 offers similar breakfast options… that and vagabond

Wish the staff at the front desk during breakfast was a friendlier. Due to the rain, some of the rooms were closed off and the breakfast was set up in the lobby. We did not get greeted.

Very comfortable bed but the hotel is a little outdated. The bedroom was small, only one bedside table and a microwave perched on top of a small fridge. A nice breakfast in the conservatory with waffles, yoghurt, cereals and fresh fruit.
