The views and beach were AMAZING. The hotel itself could be cleaner, and updated. The sheets smelled bad, the bathroom door looked like it had been chewed by a dog, and the shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a month. Overall, reasonable for the price, but hoped for more, and wouldn't have been happy if we didn't spend so much time on the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness
The beach access was amazing!! I do believe our room might have had a fire. Soot under the sink and pedestal. Over all great experience, EXCEPT for Sat night. Apparently they hosted a dance and we had no where to park. Parking should be reserved for paying guests only, our opinion. Our customer service lady upon check in needs a new job. It was very apparent that she did not like hers.

I was scared at first to stay here after reading all the bad reviews but we gave it a chance and are so glad we did! Is it outdated? Absolutely! Was it clean, YES!!! Cleanliness is the biggest thing for us and our room was clean! The staff were also amazing and we never came across someone that was rude or not helpful. If you’re looking for a modern, bougie hotel…this isn’t it, but if you’re looking for an affordable, clean hotel with the most gorgeous private beach…this is the one!!! We had a blast and will definitely be back again! Only thing I would suggest would be to install at least one hot tub, these fall nights are chilly!
