charming historic gem
perfect locationfriendly staffclean placeadditional fee
The location was awesome. It was two blocks from the pier.. one from the promenade and a mall and one block from the beach. We walked everywhere we needed to go. The staff were very friendly, and the place was clean.
We paid up front and a few days after leaving, my credit card was charged $46, a 'destination fee'. I emailed the hotel, with no response.

Breakfast is not available at the hotel. there is a café just around the corner. Guests of the hotel receive a discount there, very convenient. I enjoyed the local pastries.
