The staff was exceptional. The property had very limited parking. You could pay for street parking or pay for valet parking. The property needs work, who ever did work in this hotel, they didn't care. The fixtures are old, poor lighting.

The property was a bit rundown. There was an odor on my whole floor not just my room. The lining of the pool was not attached to the pool.

It’s right at the beach which makes it convenient. The hotel itself needs some work but the staff is so kind & friendly they go out of their way to make everything right. For the price you should not have to request a Frig or pay for parking. Maintenance had to come because our tub wasn’t working. But again the staff was Amazing in trying to help in any possible way. You can clearly tell it’s not their fault or problem it’s on the higher ups. They just do what they are asked to do. So for that I commend them.
