To start off if I could rate this hotel 10 stars I would ! The staff was very welcoming & happy to assist us on our stay. The room was clean and neat had no issues at all.

Staff was very polite. The room was good size master bedroom and then 2nd room two full size bunk beds. My complaint is sliding door to balcony was broken so could not secure it. Minor damages to room that could be easily fixed. Blow dryer on switch broken, window blinds in 2nd room torn and front door needs a door sweep n maybe an added door lock.

I do not recommend this hotel. We paid nearly $800 for 2 nights and it is very old, the place felt/smelled dirty, cracks in the door (we had to put a towel in the crack to keep the air from escaping) there were roaches when i attempted to use the microwave. Not worth what we paid. The one thing we did enjoy was sitting outside catching the sea breeze. Other than that, It was very uncomfortable.

Weather was absolutely beautiful. Enjoyed the view and tha marina/pier. Hotel was a little out dated and very dusty in our room. There was basically no hot water in the showers. And neighbors were super loud. A good stay for the price. Oh and pool was filthy.

Love to go here just to fish, not a huge fan of staying the weekend because the people get a little too crazy and the parking is TIGHT, so you’ve got to hope the people know how to park. Lowkey wish they charged more to keep some people out, just saying.
