"Staff very friendly and very clean. Breakfast was good. Croissants with egg ,sausage, and cheese. Waffles,boiled eggs,ceral,yogurt, muffins,lots of choices. Would recommend"
"The value of the stay was excellent and worth the the nightly rate. However, the place was quite dirty, outlets coming out of the wall, no battery in the smoke detector. The A/C didn’t work when we got there but the manager/owner was very helpful and walked me through a solution. All in all, a good deal for the money."
"The new owners were very friendly and helpful. We had a lovely time on the beach and enjoyed the ice cream at Scoopology. We will book rooms there again."
