The staff were amazing. The location was great for having kids and a short walk to the ocean. The room wasn’t the cleanest, little out dated. Lamps didn’t really work. The staff make up for this and it looks like they are renovating the hotel so could be upgraded sooner then later.

Great space for short term stay. Enjoyed the TV and the available options. The only negative is the cleanliness, especially of the bathroom. Otherwise, very central location and easy check in and check out!

Beautiful ocean front property. The hotel is older but has quite a bit of newer upgrades. Unfortunately the restaurant was opening the day we left so we didn’t get to try it.
