Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Our room was nice and clean and gave us plenty of room to spread out and relax. Bed was big and comfortable. Having the dog run was great! Our dog enjoyed running around after the long road trip. Breakfast was fine, with several choices, par for the course. The area surrounding the hotel is not that great, but we felt safe. The place was easy to find and the location was convenient for us.

Ideal location right on the beach.
Right on the beach, easy parking, a little tired and dated. Breakfast very limited. Given advice on local eating establishments however we didn’t use any of them as were out and about and decided to eat elsewhere.

That was our 5th stay over the past 15 years, and we still like this hotel. The room with the view and the balcony are great. The people are nice. It is a little old, the building may need a refresh, but overall we enjoyed it. The breakfast was good. We love being able to walk on the beach from the hotel.
