Overall not a bad place. The place was clean and staff was friendly. The size of the pool in the pictures was a little misleading. Great location - was able to walk to restaurants and the beach (about two blocks away).

We had a horrible experience. We had a next door person that was disrupting our sleep all night long. These people were yelling out curse words and banging on walls all night. We complained to front desk clerk to call the cops and nothing was done!
