Most was good.
Bed seemed a bit short and I"m only 5' 10"
Warn persons to look over how the rooms work before doing much.
AC control, lights, tea/coffee maker, lights in bathroom.
TV control
These can differ a lot from hotel to hotel..
"Lounge" was too far from most of the rooms and very awkward to go there. See other comments of mine.

Motel level
The property is dated/old. If someone above or beside you is showering or flushes the toilet it sounds like water is coming down into your walls and regardless there’s a constant sound of water in the ceiling or walls. Property over all could use some updates. It is a great location in terms of walking to restaurants & shops. If you’re looking for a less expensive option then it’s fine. It feels like a Motel 6. People were nice, bed was comfortable & free coffee & tea. There aren’t any other amenities so it’s really just a place to sleep and that’s how we looked at it.

We loved our stay at Inn By The Sea. It was close to the walking path by the beach, great food surrounding us, and the rooms are spacious and clean. I will definitely be staying here again when in the area either for work or personal.
