It was available on a holiday weekend but it was rundown and didn't have hand towels, wash clothes or tissues.
This is an old hotel but very clean and staff is very polite and helpful. It was very quiet. Park right at your room so very nice. Restsuarnts close by. Pool waa great. Not far from beach. Reasonable priced for steps from the beach. Bathroom and showerr was very small but clean.
Desk clerk was friendly and atmosphere was inviting. Location was quiet and relaxing. Newly upgraded facility. Will return again to this location.

I love the location of this property but for the price we paid, next time I will pay a little extra and drive a little farther to go to a place that I know is newer and will be clean. The bathroom was a repair mess of slapping lipstick on a pig, exposed seams buckling at the edges of some wall repairs (I took pictures if you want them). The place still had carpet which is probably why the musty moldy smell was so strong. I checked the filter in the AC and that was clean (small bonus) With all the other conditions I was actually worried about bed bugs so we slept on top of the comforter in hopes that, if they were there, they might not get us through all the fabric. The smell was a little better when we left the door open but we could not sleep exposed like that. I'm still having sneezing fits a week later. Sorry will not return
Blessed because you can’t put a price tag on a pie
Greatest staff I have ever encountered. I travel a lot for work & I stay in places all across this country. Not the newest place but we were here for the Beach. We will be coming back see you next year.
