The beds were super comfy! No bugs….first thing I always look for!!! Staff was friendly and helpful. The carpets need cleaned, or better yet redone. It’s overall quiet, and relaxing. Close and easy beach access. Close parking is very limited, but there’s plenty of parking across the street. I do recommend, and would stay here again. Definitely worth the money.
