This property is safe and quiet. We've enjoyed staying here for the past 5 years as it is so close to the ocean and beautiful destinations. We are warmly treated upon reaching out to the hotel like it was ac5 star.

This Best Western was a great location, plenty of parking, friendly and helpful staff, and loved that there was an option to divide the front room area from the bedroom area with the pocket door. Having the balcony was nice too. Would definitely stay here again.

Not too bad

It was just a quick over nighter. We checked in around 5, and our check in employees was fantastic. The room set up was a little strange, bathroom sink in the bedroom part. Bed was comfortable. It did the job for a night.
