Great spot for your stay in Apalachicola.

Very clean, well kept place and convenient walking distance to pretty much anything you’d like to do in the downtown area. The kitchen was also very well stocked with pretty much any type of cookware you could possibly need during your stay. Would definitely stay here again.
