This boutique hotel is in a great location. Though it is an older property, there has been some minor updating and it is extremely well kept and clean. Staff is very attentive to needs and we had a pleasurable stay. Very open to staying here again.

Small, modest, older property. Very nice, accommodating staff. Our one bedroom with kitchenette was very spacious. Small hot tub and small pool were perfect. A beautiful view of ocean from small, roof top patio. I would stay here again.

Is a wonderful vacation spot and so conveniently located. Our room was not ready when 3 o’clock came in was not ready till 445 which wasn’t so bad. It was relatively quiet. I like this outdoor space from our room and I liked having a little kitchen. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful.

My second time staying here. Really like this property. Nice and quiet yet close to the beach and restaurants. Only two tiny pools, with no real sun, but you have the beach and Pacific right nearby. Room was nothing fancy but perfectly fine. Excellent housekeeping. Great value for the money.
