Parking was easy but a little down from the room. Room was ok. Lots of shops nearby including one right next door. Grocery store and the beach along with restaurants only less than a minute away. Most people were friendly, including the staff.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel staff demonstrated exceptional assistance and cordiality. However, we encountered several significant issues during our stay. Our room was not adequately cleaned, with trash not emptied and broken bars of soap found in the shower, indicating a lack of thorough cleaning. Additionally, there were no towels provided, and the floor was littered with debris, including a used bandaid. Furthermore, the sink exhibited a brown or black film residue that we had to clean ourselves using our own Lysol wipes. While the staff and owner expressed sincere apologies, their actions did not instill a sense of comfort or assurance that we would be able to return to the hotel.
