The hotel was about the worst value for money that I have ever stayed at. The location was all it had going for it. They did not clean the rooms in fact if you wanted them clean you had to schedule it ahead of time and pay an extra $35 for each cleaning. I would never stay there again.

OK stay, basic amenities on a noisy street
The hotel is decent but being right on the major road made it very loud and almost impossible to have the window open especially when facing the ocean. The beds were ok with a mediocre mattress and super basic sheets - get what you pay for but being by the water is convenient. Came into lounge where staff was arguing with each other and made it even less comfortable. Parking costs extra but is a good look considering the location.

The fridge was dirty, had open drinks left in, there were no wash cloths, you have to help yourself from the closet which is on first floor however, there were none left. The cabinet under the sink was dirty and the sink was clogged. Parking is mostly for small compact cars, if you have a bigger vehicle you might have to find parking on the street because is difficult to fit in the spots. It is an avarage hotel , convenient location, ok if you keep expectation on the low side.

I stayed at this same property 3 years ago under different ownership and it was much nicer then. Both the rug and the floor had sand in some areas. The room could be seen from parking lot but the room didn’t have sheer privacy curtains There were very few lights so drawing black out drapes for privacy not ideal. The hair and bath products provided were low quality with very masculine rather than neutral scent. But it’s a 5 minute walk to a great beach with plenty of dining in walking distance.

Beach day!
The unit was immaculately clean. I had an eye out for that after reading some negative reviews. The location is great for the beach. Other places around it would have to go further to a road that cut through to the beach. There is some traffic noise on the front of the building, but I didn’t find it bothersome. The best part was the staff. They were helpful and even loaned us sand toys and other things for the beach. Don’t forget to ask.

Good location
Our day was fine. The hotel was clean. The room was a decent size. The parking situation was very tight and limited however, the hotel is in a great location, biking distance to the beach, food and shopping.

The room was adequate. The location of the room was facing the main street, so it was very loud through the night. the pool was clean but not inviting.

Great location with easy access to the beach, dining and coffee shop. It was hard to get a good night sleep because of the noise coming from the street and the air conditioning unit. The shower felt uncomfortable with water spilling everywhere, but a modern shower head would be an easy fix.

Super clean rooms. Clean comfy beds. Air conditioning was great. So nice to have a mini fridge in the room and quick to run down to the lounge and use microwaves when needed. Pool was so nice and clean. Literally across the street from the beach. All good things to say about our stay!

Nice hotel in great location—walk to beach and several restaurants. Only downside was a wonky coffee maker but I’m sure they would have changed it out if I’d asked (just went out for breakfast instead)! Modern feeling and clean.

This was the perfect beach hotel. We were able to easily walk to a very nice family friendly beach. There were a handful of restaurants close by. Breakfast could have been easier if they had some basics in the hotel lounge.
