Very short walk to the beach & has many good dining options in walking distance. The shower and toilet in our room leaked a little & the light above the sink did not work which was only minimally inconvenient. Would stay again.

Meh

The pictures online looked way nicer than it was. The room had a toilet built for kids and i had to stand sideways in the shower because it was so tiny. The lightswitch didnt work. Glad i just needed a place to sleep and didnt have to stay any longer than 1 night. The room was way overpriced for what it was. Best thing about the hotel is the close proximity to the beach.

Mayra

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
At most this could be a 3 star place. The rooms, were in passable condition, but beds were noisy, toilet handle broken, sink was cracked, doors needs replacement, faucet for shower needs to be replaced. The restaurant is acceptable but they don't do take-outs which for us was a negative due to our situation. The personnel were courteous but our vehicle was hit by another vehicle and the cameras didn't show who hit it and the personnel didn't make a effort to search for another angle of the cameras they have nor made a report about it when we were there and they charge for parking. Frankly this is a place that I wouldn't stay again if I don't have to. The hotel next to the place is better.

Horrible Stay

The room was very small. It felt like I was in an underground bunker. Bathroom floods when taking a shower and not enough towels, wash cloth. The Hotel in person is very deceiving and does not look like what was pictured in the booking.
