Wasn't happy with pur room and called front desk and immediately was given a room with a private balcony. Did wish I had a kitchen and the mini fridge was iced over. Only ice machine was in main lobby and just for cups of ice no coolers. Room was decent but had a funky smell. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Overall it was a good stay.

On the beach and clean, comfortable rooms!

Location was great. Room was clean. Beds were comfortable. Even though it was noisy outside, you couldn’t hear it from the inside of the rooms. We had a great stay and will definitely be back!

The beach access was amazing!! I do believe our room might have had a fire. Soot under the sink and pedestal. Over all great experience, EXCEPT for Sat night. Apparently they hosted a dance and we had no where to park. Parking should be reserved for paying guests only, our opinion. Our customer service lady upon check in needs a new job. It was very apparent that she did not like hers.

The views and beach were AMAZING. The hotel itself could be cleaner, and updated. The sheets smelled bad, the bathroom door looked like it had been chewed by a dog, and the shower looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a month. Overall, reasonable for the price, but hoped for more, and wouldn't have been happy if we didn't spend so much time on the beach.
