The parking lot was too small for all the guests. No free breakfast. Walls are thin. Bed and pillows were comfortable. Thankfully inside is renovated. Outside reminded me of what was probably a cheap hotel back in the day. Overall decent place, but if you want a better clientele, pay a little more and stay somewhere else. Bugs also can get under the doors because too big of a gap!!

The room was spacious and accommodated our family of 5 well! The room was clean and provided a lot of space for our belongings. The only downsides were that the room beside us was really loud (not the hotels fault though) and it was near a main thoroughfare, so it was a bit louder than anticipated. However, the staff was really friendly, accommodating and the hotel offered extra amenities that I wasn’t expecting like “guest of the day” and tokens to rent beach equipment.
