Loved how spacious our room was with a full kitchen! Pool had broken heater during our stay so that was a bummer but out of their control. Only thing that was frustrating was walls were really thin so we could hear everyone in the rooms around us.

Walkable to the ocean. This property is great if you don't plan to spend time in your room. We were placed in a "courtyard" room which overlooked the dumpsters for the hotel across the street. Heater in room did not work.

It was quaint that the rooms had original (from the 50s?) windows, heating, and plumbing, but windows were not very sound proof, the heater was noisy and the pilot light had to be restarted by the staff, and the toilet was noisy.
