I really enjoyed this condominium style room. It had a lot of pluses. With the kitchen and the living room space and separate bedroom. I also liked that there was plenty of areas to walk my dog. The big negative is that even though there is supposed to be Wi-Fi good luck getting access to it and you absolutely cannot stream any tv or cable shows. You are stuck with watching the direct tv service that they provide. Also the rooms get very stuffy and could use some sort of air conditioning. They do provide a box fan but I could only imagine during the summer time how uncomfortable it would be. Also it takes quite a while for the water heater to heat up in the shower. Overall there are there are many more pluses than negatives and I would recommend this place. The staff was very friendly during check out/ check in.

Room 306. Overall it was a nice clean cozy studio with view of the ocean. Slept with the slider open all nite to hear the ocean which was awesome hearing the waves crashing all nite. Thats what we were after. Bed firmly comfy. Newer fridge, microwave. Negs - TV was smaller than in other rooms. Toilet flush sounds like a jet taking off. Walls seemed thin, can hear next room conversations (and other things!). Flooring on deck was delaminating a bit and had exposed nail heads. No a/c in room, but a large box fan in closet if needed. Only real annoying thing we experienced besides the loud neighbors at nite was the sliding curtain to the deck, it is one single pull curtain and not a split curtain so the window by the head of the bed let a lot of light in in the am...couldn't block the window unless you pulled the curtain all the way across blocking the access to the deck.

I had an amazing stay at the Canterbury Inn. Each of the suites was decorated individually according to the owner. They had everything you could possibly need. I would hands down stay here again!
