"Nice room, it was exactly like the pictures and description. Price performance value was good, they turned the heater on before arrival and there was a heated blanked. Friendly and very helpful staff and you can park infornt of your room. Only negative thing was the little hole in the window in the bathroom. I wish you and your family the best."

"As a place to rest for a short break on the road, it is relatively simple. It is very close to Caroline Beach. It is not very convenient to walk to the town center. It is not very far to see the blue penguin."

"Location is not very easy to find Inundated in the middle of a private house Older equipment But more complete 🈶 Induction cooker can cook noodles and eggs Each room leads to the backyard. But the backyard is a grand one. No privacy. Objectively speaking, there is not much to play in this place. Impression of passing by"

"I was so happy to stay here. Friendly boss Spacious kitchen and living room I tried to spa because I had a bathtub, but I was so tired that I fell asleep. I have an oven, so I eat Tomahawk steak. There are a lot of dvd at the front desk, so I think it's good to have dinner and watch a movie."

"Location within walking distance to many restaurants. Outside view great. The room kinda small, had fridge and an electric kettle. The shower had very strong water pressure — a bit intense. Door lock not working, pillow not clean. The parking lot is across the street; I arrived in the evening and it took me a couple of rounds to find it. As a short stopover, it was okay, but not best value."
