Cute, Clean. I loved that Waves and a Coffeehouse was so close. Public beach access is located across the street. The only thing I didn’t love is that it was noisy. There is an apartment above and I could hear everything from them walking around, to using the toilet. At the end of my stay, there were dogs that barked and pranced from one end to the apartment to the other.
