Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Room was old paint chipping, drywall cracks, old furnishings and fixtures. The location is prime and the price is reasonable but if you are very picky about certain things, for a few bucks more you can get a newer more modern room right across the street.

The room was a little outdated, but seemed clean. The staff was rude and unpleasant, however, during the check-in and parking process. The location and price was the winning factor as it is a short distance from the pier.
