This is a horrible place to stay. There's a lot of sketchy people hanging around late at night. When I checked into my hotel, the ceiling was leaking water in the shower. I did get moved to a different room. The ocean view that they say you have is literally looking out your window. I would never stay here again.

Memorial Weekend Family Trip

The stay was decent. We loved the location and it being on the beach side. We didn’t care for a carpeted room or made for the room to feel damp. But the staff was very friendly and efficient. Overall it was great for the short stay we had. We would stay here again.

A family oriented hotel

This is an apart-hotel. The room featured a living area, a full kitchen, and a dining table. It is more recommended for a large family, on a long stay. I was on a sólo, 1-night stay, so did not get to benefit from those extras. Premises are old and rundown, but the staff gracefully make up for that with excellent customer service.
