The property is very close to the beach. It was very clean and there was staff 24/7. Lots of rental ameny. Parking was unique, either street parking or on the property for a certain fee. After 6pm is free street parking. It was safe quiet and relaxing. Opening my hotel door and getting that beach breeze was a pure joy. I will be coming back.

Room was basic, very loud air conditioning and hotel is run down with no upkeep and rust everywhere. For the rate they charge it should have nicer rooms. Around the property it’s run down, paint falling off and thin walls so can hear everything so don’t get much sleep - We left at 5am as had been up the whole night and paid $350 a night on a Thursday. You can stay at Viceroy for same amount
