The room was very adequate for the price. Our room walked out directly to the beach which was perfect for our family. The building was old and could use some updates, but for the price not bad.

It wasn’t a “perfect” hotel but what is? I think we paid $240 for 3 nights during Thanksgiving, we had a 4th floor balcony room with a full kitchen. We had a blast. The pool is heated and warm! Ocean not so much lol! The staff was all friendly. We had no issues. I would definitely stay here again. We were able to walk to the pier multiple times within our stay.

Check in staff was friendly, the room had a kitchen (with dishes and cutlery which was appreciated!). The room was very clean however we discovered one set of sheets were soiled when going to bed. It was after midnight and the staff brought us clean sheets and then in the morning made it up to us for our troubles. Had a great stay, loved the wonderful view and would happily stay again.
