Pros

Walking distance to multiple seafood restaurants

Cons

Limited on-site dining options

“For two decades, this has been a reliable spot near prime birding and dining; the rooms are basic-TV, fridge, microwave-but the beds are good. While the bayfront dock was damaged and the shower this time wasn't great, it's a no-frills option that emphasizes location. Some might seek fancier places, but the enduring appeal lies in its consistent value.”
