The room was immaculate with shiny flooring and fresh linens. I also appreciated the drinking glasses and coffee mugs provided.
Dining choices within walking distance are somewhat limited.

The location was a highlight, with proximity to the beach and convenient access to nearby restaurants. However, parking was a hassle, requiring us to park across the street. Notably, the lack of communication about room placement was frustrating. The comfort of having a fridge and microwave in the room counterbalanced some of the drawbacks.

I had a fantastic 2-night stay in the King Room Annex, where I enjoyed a refreshing dip in the clean swimming pool and relaxed in the hot tub after a long day. The only bummer was the lack of breakfast options, but with so many nearby restaurants, I never ran out of choices. Definitely recommend this place for a great getaway! 😊

The location is prime for anyone wanting to be close to downtown activities, providing a nice balance of accessibility without the noise. The rooms have a distinct vibe with modern touches and historic artwork that nods to local culture, creating a comfortable atmosphere.
Room furnishings show noticeable wear, and some minor cleanliness issues were present, including remnants of past guests in the bathroom. At times, street sounds filtered in, which could be bothersome if you're looking for a tranquil stay. Noise from neighboring rooms can also be an inconvenience, making it hard to get a good night's sleep, especially with loud neighbors or outside disturbances.
