Charming old hotel, steps to the beach and walkable to the downtown area. The staff was friendly and helpful and the food at the restaurant was good. The old cage elevator is very cool. Rooms are small but well appointed - only wished for more towel racks for wet towels and bathing suits. Loved the free beach pass/umbrellas/chairs!

The Inn has great potential but certainly needs updating - bathrooms are lacking. Hotel staff and dining staff were wonderful. Food was great. Decorating was not what I would have expected in an old inn. The building has great personality - furnishings none!
