Great little hotel. Right across from the beach. Great views of the beach from our room. Not a 5 star property but very comfortable and clean. The staff was outstanding and helpful. I would recommend this hotel if you are on a budget. Many great restaurants in walking distance.

This place needs to be updated. The room was ok but has a lot of Ants. I complained to the front desk they had someone come and clean but at night there would be ants in the bathroom and I found a big ant in the bedroom. This hotel is also not in the center of everything, it’s far off

Towels were always very clean and fresh and dried skin really good. Staff is always helpful and friendly. Breakfast was always very hearty and good. location is great. Did not like kitchen window would not close so open all day and night, closet shelves were dusty and dirty, had to wipe them all off before placing my clothes etc. there. Did not like that we had to go to front desk to ask for toilet paper for our room.
