The pool is amazing and the area is quiet. However, lots of smoking and the smell gets in the front door and through the walls. Lots of construction which will leave the whole place nice in the future.

Older hotel but they've cleaned and fixed it up. One of the few on Bolivar Point that you don't have to rent the whole house for an overnight stay. It's slow season so office was locked while they worked but a simple buzz had someone there to help. Room was clean and comfortable with plenty of room, could have added a small couch for comfort. They have great murals . Has good wifi and fridge and microwave. No coffee maker but had coffee in office. I would stay again.
