Lovers Point Inn

8/10 Good
"The inn has a beautiful view of the ocean! Third floor was awesome! My only complaint was that parking was tight and a bit confusing and there was no AC in the room. When we arrived it was very stuffy. However it wasn’t a problem later in the night. If that stuff doesn’t bother you this is the right place!"
