This hotel was conveniently located near restaurants, shops, and just a short walk from the beach. The free summer trolly stops just a half a block away also which was nice for when we were loaded down with beach gear and or groceries. The rooms are a little dated and rustic, but charming and perfectly adequate. The provided linens and toiletries were very high quality. The hotel staff was very friendly and provided beach towels and chairs which was really nice. The pool and pool area was very nice. Parking was very tight so if you have a larger vehicle it could be very tricky to park safely, but once you do park there's no need to drive again until it's time to leave. All in all this was a nice place for a quick weekend vacation and I would recommend.

It’s clean and convenient to the Pageant of the Masters. The hand-written note welcoming us was a nice touch. However, we would have rather gotten some lotion and a shower cap in the bathroom instead of the note. The checkout time posted inside the room is different than the one listed online. Had to call the main office to clear that up. No one was at the desk for checkout. Overall, it’s an average hotel. No
