Hitching Post Studios Inn
"Sfaff was very helpful, coming quickly and personally when we had difficulty determining how to use the oven. Bathroom and Kitchen were new, but furnishing were old but functional. Second room with kitchen was suprisingly spacious. Good value for the price, so we would come again."

Bella Notte
"Clean room, comfortable bed, nice shower but low water pressure, easy check in and out, no room service. Lots of rules. Overall nice place but too expensive with no amenities."

Seaside Inn & Suites
"The property was dirty. Our room was not very clean. The shower was pretty disgusting and the balcony was filthy. The room was super hot and took forever to cool down with the little AC unit in the corner. Definitely would not stay there again."
