9/10 Wonderful! (1,003 reviews)

A good place to rest, and be in a good vicinity of other attractions when on vacation. Our only issue was, that one of our blankets was pretty stained up but we just removed it.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,006 reviews)

The location was great. Quiet and just off the freeway. But the room and halls smelled of mildew. Breakfast was a typical carb-heavy American hotel breakfast, but there was fruit. The staff were great.

"Everything was awesome. Parking garage wasnt as bad as other reviews made it out to be. $42 per day for parking does suck along with the $23 per day hotel fee. However, we did get a daily $20 food and beverage credit and did find street parking nearby. Family loved the place. "

"This is an older hotel and they are working to renovate it. TV barely worked, faucet constantly leaked, fridge didn’t really cool. However, the beds were comfy, cleaning staff tried their best and location with being able to walk out straight to the beach (and foot washing station) make this place worth staying. "
