People were super friendly. Breakfast was great. Location is just a few blocks from the ocean. The rooms are a little dated - the furniture is dinged up and the TVs are dated. Beyond that I really enjoyed it.

Pleasantly surprised by the property when i drove up. Very clean and maintained. Walked in and the staff was very pleasant and friendly. As checking in she informed me of places to eat and beach was within walking distance. The breakfast that was offered had a nice variety to choose from. The room was always clean and felt very safe

Hotel staffs were friendly. The room and bed were fine and comfortable. The continental breakfast was typical like scrambled liquid eggs, bacon/sausage, waffle maker and standard bread selection. we like the coffee a lot. one suggestion is about the fitness room and the pool. The fitness equipment were broken, rusted and showed being neglected. Pool was not heated to use.
