We got moved here by Expedia after a terrible experience at another hotel. Staff was super understanding and so attentive. The room was nice, the view was good, and we were close to everything we wanted to do. I would recommend to anyone. Very budget friendly. I would stay again.

It was not in the busiest part of the seawall. Could get in and out of the property. The staff was great, friendly and helpful!! The ice machine on the 3rd floor was not working and could not lift the blackout shade to bring light into my room in the day. Had a great view of the beach from the balcony. It was perfect for my little vacation. Thank you!!

I appreciated the check-in process because the front desk clerk was very friendly and pleasant. Upon arrival to the room it was very neat and the bathroom even had little flowers made out of the toilet paper and Kleenex. I can say this is one property that was a delight to have booked.

The overnight desk clerk on 05/04 was so friendly and helpful. The young lady with clear rimmed glasses at the desk the morning of 05/07 was SO RUDE to my husband! He politely asked her what time breakfast ended and she snapped back with, “ 9:30! Like it says right there!”and pointed to the sign behind him. Then laughed at him! It was completely unnecessary and unprofessional! The hotel itself is pretty rundown and our room had cracks and water stains everywhere. Also, you can hear EVERYTHING that happens in the hall from your room. I would definitely consider a different hotel!
