Good on a budget
They charged an extra $16 resort fee at check in. They then made me sign an agreement to be evicted without refund if any guest complains for noise for any reason. AC fan was loud and rackety and ran all night. Bay beach set up was super cool. Staff was friendly and helpful.

Unfortunate birthday trip
Room was flooding, was moved to a bayside room to compensate, went from King bed reserved for Fiance's birthday to a room with two small beds. Was told no other King room was possible. Listing said pool open in may, was not open. Keycards did not work for half the stay, to get into room you would need someone from the office with an administrative key every time. Hate writing this review because the staff was kind and seemed to be doing there best. Hopefully they figure things out for the summer season, but I can't honestly recommend them to anyone.

Great place to stay
The room was great, but husband and I are in our 70's and three flights of stairs was a bit much with luggage and two dogs. Staff was great, super friendly, the view was awesome, did kayaking with my one dog on the one beautiful day that we had out of four. Weather is what it is so you just grin and bear it. We would definitely stay there again, but on the first floor.

Very friendly and helpful after hours
I had an issue where I left my laptop in the room, but the hotel then closed for the week I called the reservation line they sent somebody over who had to drive 30 minutes just so they can re-Treeve the laptop for me, which was very much appreciated very friendly there. Definitely recommend staying there again

It was a cute spot for the night. Very close and walking distance from nice restaurants. And the pier in the back by the water was nice and peaceful during the day.

They did not have cleaning staff and still charged a resort fee when we arrived. It was later in October. I will stay again as it is reasonablyt priced, and great location. Great for a family.

This place was amazing! I’m usually an ocean front girl but this definitely changed my mind with a room literally on the bay and on the ground floor. I would definitely go back. And the ladies in the office were so nice. Hidden gem for sure.
