"Comfy hotel in a great spot. Garden View room was cozy but had everything we needed and a nice patio to sit out and listen to the frogs. Short walk to beach, coffee, food, and more. Ability to borrow beach towels and umbrellas was great. Parking was close to the room and easy. Coffee cart out front was a great option in the morning!
