Oceanside Inn & Suites
This was a great stay for us. Super clean, simple rooms with a lovely staff and great location. Able to walk to some great restaurants and coffee. It was surprisingly quiet for being right on the main road. Will definitely stay here again

We live our stays here, little detail now, they ask you to strip beds and do things that should be for cleaning staff, hard to tip if you're doing all the cleaning.
