The pool was very green, and parking was very limited. Other than that, we actually had a wonderful stay! The beds were way more comfortable than some high end hotel beds. This location is conveniently located to everything you need.

This is a great low budget hotel for anyone who is just trying to sleep nights in their room and enjoy the rest of their day at the beach close by! Overall not a bad location! A little extra sanitizing on your part and you’ll feel like home! Nice pool as well.
