Angela

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff were all very friendly and our room was basic but very clean. The sidewalks and some outside areas could use some cleaning and maintenance. The bed was too firm, I woke up stiff. Overall, not a bad place for a beach getaway, but a bit overpriced for what it is. A nicer name brand hotel nearby was about the same per night.
