Very cool retro. Felt like I stepped back into the 50's (though I wasn't alive then). Tiki style bar. Old school motel-restaurant. With s tropical vibe. Breakfast was good and a good price. Great staff.

The property is a masterpiece we loved it and will go back very soon. The only issue we had was housekeeping coming into our room unannounced and knocking over my surprise birthday decorations that my wife spent a lot of time putting together.
