“There's something uniquely charming about a Victorian building near both the river and the beach. I particularly appreciate that it's not a cookie-cutter experience, but rather each room has its own layout, creating intimate nooks. The fact that they provide complimentary refreshments throughout the day is a really nice touch.”
