Parking nightmare

Everything with the stay was great but some parked so as blocking the drive way and we had to back out of drive way onto to busy street with limited vision hitting curb twice trying to get out safely. Several hours later the car had still not been moved or addressed.

Great comfortable room…convenient to beach except, no place to hang clothes; dance club at night was noisy and unexpected fireworks scared us out of bed thinking e we were under military attack- really! Someone should have let us know ahead of time.

Cute but uncomfortable

Really cute hotel that was kept clean. Parking was a little tough, but the mattress and pillow were hard AF. Could feel the springs in the bed, super uncomfortable. Additionally, the hotel is within earshot of the nearby train.

Charming quiet hotel in a great location.

Beautiful hotel!! Front desk was so friendly and helpful. Hotel is very ‘boutique’-like. Beautiful warm decors. Quiet hotel room. Great location. Free parking. We walked to Main Street and had dinner and in the morning (Saturday morning) walked Main Street which had converted into an incredible Farmers Market. Would recommend to others and would stay here again.
