The staff were very friendly and helpful. The pool and access to the beach was great. The room was OK, sleeping area was very clean, however the bathroom was very small you could hardly move in it and the tub had some yucky mold.

The room had a lot of sand in the floor. The room we had doesn’t have house keeping so had to ask for clean towels and toilet paper. For the price should have at least some house keeping. Other then that it was good hotel

Oceanfront with beautiful views from the shared deck area. The room had the necessities but could have used more lighting. We had a wonderful time though and would definitely stay there again.

I love this hotel for its amenities and friendly staff. The rooms are really clean for being a beach hotel. I’ve been to some that still have sand everywhere and this locations cleanliness is top tier. They allow you to use the pool and park if you arrive early. They have beach chairs you can sign out for use.
