Let’s start with the Pro’s: lots of restaurants and bars to choose from locally. Balcony was nice and had a good view of the beach in the morning. Staff were all very friendly. Parking was accessible and plentiful. Room was smallish but okay, looks to be newly remodeled. Great common viewing deck and courtyard is beautiful. Cons: if you’re looking for upscale, this area ain’t it. This is a party beach and the area smells like marijuana 24/7. Trash cans always overflowing on the beach wall and people selling products on the sidewalk right under the hotel balcony. Also don’t plan on a hot shower…water was luke warm at best even at 5 am before everyone was awake using it. For us, cons outweigh the pros and we won’t stay here again.

Great!

Had a great time at the location. The common areas are always kept clean. The staff are friendly. The only issue is that the appliances look a little worn and the bathroom is small. I love that there was free parking the no pet fees. The dogs had a great time at the beach. Would stay here again if in the area.

Property is okay. Staff were good and respectful. The place is noisy. We could hear people talking outside and right from the room next door. We felt that the place is unsafe especially night time where drunk people walk around the property. We thought the room is not worth the quoted price as the place does not have a swimming pool, no microwave, and the room is not that big.

Hotel was nice right by the beach and many stores around to walk to. Affordable. The only issue was no hot water in the shower and you can hear your neighbors. But other than that it was a great hotel! I would stay here again :)

It’s decent.

It wasn’t the cleanest but smelled so strongly of cleaning products in the room. Like so strong. Super accessible to so many things though. Loved being off the beach. It was sort of loud but that was to be expected and I didn’t mind. Not the safest, someone was murdered in the alley next to the hotel the night I was there… but other than that!? Decent for a beach hotel.

Could be better.

I hate to be one to leave a bad review. But, the hotel was not up to date, very small rooms, always loud at night, not as clean as it could be, and hot water took forever to warm (about 20 mins) not fun when you have kids. Location was perfect. Walking distance to great restaurants. Overall wouldn't recommend stay.

This was a small room but everything was nice. Being right at the beach was really nice. I think the only downside was no microwave to re-heat all the delicious food we got but couldn't eat all at once. I would definitely come again.
