What a find. This place was so clean, updated, stylish, and fabulously priced for the location. We paid 98 (110 with fees) for ocean front, beautifully decorated hotel room with pool, tiki bar, and on site restaurant that was also newly remodeled and gorgeous. 10/10. Will be back!

Consistently warm, professional staff who each took the time to check in and say hello and ask how things were going if there was anything I needed. Everyone had smiles and seemed happy to be working there as a team. The tiki bar was a lot of fun and the food was delicious I had fish tacos in the they were so fresh. The bartenders were engaging and took great care of all of the patrons in a timely manner. The room was fabulously clean beautifully appointed and the mattress so comfortable I had a great sleep two nights and a wonderful stay. I will definitely be back

Pros: Excellent service, great staff, good location, cute room decor Cons: Our room was cleaned using some very low-grade pinesol that smelled really unpleasant. It bought down the whole ambience. If it had smelled like the lobby it would have been great. The building in general is in dire need of updating — stained grout in the bathroom, rusty metal installations

There was some construction on site and the staff absolutely went out of their way to accommodate us for any inconvenience. We were in walking distance of Uncle Vinny's Pizzeria which I would highly recommend. We had immediate access to a lovely Tiki Bar on an extended pier that was maybe 100 feet from the breaking waves. We will be returning to this hotel in the future for sure!

Wireless Gets a Zero

We have stayed here for years and understood the ongoing construction and are excited for the renovations. However, wireless at a minimum was terrible and I had to work but could not due to no wireless. It did not ruin the trip but certainly put me in a position on my job. Wireless is essential to work remote and it failed consistently.
