We stay at this specific property 5X a year since our daughter attends school nearby. love this place. The morning breakfast can be a hit/miss but at least they always have bagels, hot coffee and bananas, so it's all good. Staff is very friendly and whenever there is ever a problem, they are quick to resolve it.

Property was well kept. Not much parking though so we had to park across the street at another hotel. About a mile from the beach and a mile from restaurants but nothing within traditional walking distance. There’s a great walking trail by as well. The hotel itself is very nice. Very comfy beds and huge rooms. Breakfast was mediocre at best but I appreciated having the option. Staff was great! Had an issue getting the crib I requested but it was eventually delivered

Our stay was excellent and satisfactory in many ways. The size of the room and bathroom were very spacious. The parking lot was convenient and accessible. The breakfast had plenty of options to choose from. The service was terrific as we were assisted with late night requests.
