Absolutely horrific. Power went out multiple times, roaches, otherwise deplorable cleaning, the place was an absolute pit. Nothing on their website or on google is the same, everything is jumbled and inaccurate, and the service at the front desk is beyond rude. Constantly accusatory and trying to threaten us with extra fees. I wouldnt be surprised if they find a way to steal the deposit on the room. Astonishingly overpriced, a motel 6 on the worst side of town wouldve been an upgrade. Cant even fit everything thats wrong with this place as the max amount of characters is less words than my google review. Stay away from this place, do not give them any of your hard earned money.

The place met expectations for cleanliness and comfort. However, there were a couple of strong negatives. 1. We had the do not disturb sign on the door but housekeeping opened our door, 45 minutes before checkout. We had the chain on so no harm done but that's really not ok. I feel like, there are certain things a budget place can still do right, at no cost, and this is an example. Second, the breakfast was laughable. Juice and coffee both days. Day one was granola bars and a single, deflated orange. Day two was processed muffins. If I filter places that offer breakfast through hotels. com, I don't expect a buffet but this was actually insulting. If that's all you can manage, don't bother and let me plan accordingly. Lastly room had a slightly funky smell but that's typical near the beach. Definitely suggest looking elsewhere.

Building is old.walk up only. Parking is good and open. Staff are friendly but if they forget to do something they will call you...even at midnight to come fix it for them. Beds were comfortable and room was clean. Hot water took a while to get to the room resulting in alot or water waist.

Everyday except my last I was provided with fresh towels, empty trash can and a made bed, which I appreciated very much! Nothing really to rave about, "breakfast" was juice/coffee and some oat bars so I wouldn't really classify it as food and especially not a morning meal. Convenient location to where I needed to go and it was the cheapest spot around. I would say I got what I paid for.
