Welcoming staff, beautiful historic hotel with wonderful Christmas decor. The location is perfect for access to the beach and shopping. We also enjoyed the Christmas lights around town in the evenings. The rooms were spacious and clean. The rooms, especially the bathroom, are a bit outdated, but overall it was a great trip.

The location was probably the best on the beach. Everywhere we wanted to go was walkable. There was a large covered porch that we were able to enjoy happy hour and listen to the nightly entertainment.
