Words from our guests...
- The atmosphere was so beautiful and relaxing. Breakfast was complimentary in the patio, and was so quiet, and peaceful. There was a fountain in the center and the flow of water with the quiet surroundings was so relaxing. The bed was extremely comfortable, the room very cozy.
- Small boutique hotel about a block away from the Main Street in Avalon. Very well maintained property with a very friendly staff. Nice courtyard with tables for continental breakfast in the morning. A rooftop with great views at night...The place was spotless clean and the housekeeping was excellent as well.
