“This historic inn, while ideally situated a block from Boca Grande Beach, seems caught between eras. Its proximity to the beach and local dining is a definite plus, but according to what I've researched, it could use a refresh. It could be a prime choice for couples or vacationers looking for a unique stay if some updates were made.”
