This was a very cute hotel. We knew there would be live music, so the loudness did not really bother us. But it was Super LOUD! We were Very surprised how crazy busy it was! Not really enough seating. We ended up sharing a table with a local couple, so that was fun and different. Parking was a bit rough to find also. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and liked how clean and updated our room was.

Pretty basic.

Stay was fine. We used it as a launching pad for other activities. Pool is small and clean. It was nice to be close to music at the Tiki Hut although sometimes the “live” is just a singer with a karaoke-style back up. Fun polka band on Tuesdays. Staff is friendly. Furnishings did not look like the photos. The nightstands and headboard were 80s pickled wood and the chairs were IKEA. There was a larger mini fridge. Ice machine was out of order. Bed was not new and a bit squeaky.
