Gaido's Seaside Inn

Gaido's Seaside Inn

8/10 Good
"A good place to stay for a day or two. Room definitely needed some attention. Curtain partially torn from track and sink handle very loose, either needs tightened or replaced. I’m assuming dining area is closed for renovation. No where to sit inside. Either had to eat inside room with just 1 chair and small table or eat outside and be surrounded by semi aggressive seagulls. Attached restaurant Gaido’s, was very good."
