In all fairness, this inn appears to be a decorative safe hamlet for excited beachcomber hopefuls but it just falls short of expectation. The bed was second rate, completely uncomfortable and provided zero back support. The logistics of the suite kitchenette were deplorable. The microwave was on the bottom shelf in a cabinet rendering it inaccessible and unusable. The refrigerator was big but the freezer was too high to reach. The water temperature and pressure in the shower were terrible: hot water was no hotter than lukewarm. The water pressure felt like there was kink in a water hose. It was frustrating and prolonged the showering time. The room was not equipped with an iron or ironing board. None of the rooms in this inn do not have landline phones. You are required to use your mobile device. But of all the let-downs, I felt unsafe at night. There were other guests yelling and screaming or possibly arguing at midnight. Security response was a young front desk agent that appeared bothered to patrol the area and solved nothing. There were random guests taking on cell phones and walking in the court yard. For nearly $400/night, for a 2 night stay, the bar of expectation is set high. The Franciscan Inn is nothing more than a Motel 6 masquerading as boutique inn adjacent the beachfront deceptively over-promising and colossally under-delivering on the mere basics to innocent and unsuspecting guests. That’s acting in bad faith and bad business altogether. It’s a no for me.
