Schooner Inn
This is an older hotel but more affordable when compared to other options on the walk. The room was awesome, espcially given the jacuzzi facing the walk. This was a great stay. I will book again.

This was our second time staying at this hotel and once again it was great! We arrived to the hotel for check in and were told they upgraded us to a suite just for booking way in advance. Breakfast was always great as well! Would book again.
