Not good

My room smelled so bad of musty dampness I had to change rooms, then in the new room I had to move the chair to fix the curtains so outside light wasn't blasting in and found a full humidifier. After empting the water basin it ran all night !

The little spot was a nice getaway for us. The ambiancs is cute cottage like, filled with beautiful antique decor. Our room had a balcony out the back that sat along the woods. They were very clean, meticulously so, and the area was nice and quiet. Its a nice spot to stay for the price, and an even better spot for couples who are one a weekend getaway to the dunes.

Quaint hotel, comfortable, met our needs

Quaint hotel, seems like it is slowly being updated and refurbished. Rooms were comfortable but they could not accommodate our adjoining request, but did give us next door rooms but only available on second floor, and no elevator made it a bit difficult. Pool was also down a flight of stairs. Rooms were clean, but balconies were very dirty/spider webs, etc. they need a good power wash and repaint. Same with pool area, needs some attention to walls, doors, patio. Breakfast was good, enough options for family. Cost was a lot for the area but very limited options, so that’s probably why. Uno pizza next door was yummy but service very slow. Everyone at the hotel was very nice, even had some fun little plastic animals hid around on Sat morning that the grandsons loved searching for.
