We loved this hotel! The location is perfect, literally feet from the beach so you can hear the ocean from your room. The courtyard is quaint and very well kept - it was also great for events. The rooms were a good size and having your own mini fridge came in handy. We had the opportunity to meet the owner. The hotel means alot to him and he takes pride in keeping it clean and having a friendly and helpful staff.
