The rooms don’t have beach view but you are right on the beach. The room and property is very clean. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Although there is parking it’s not always enough spots for all guests. You can use the meter parking next door and the hotel will give you a refund. They made it very easy.

We booked upgraded room with partial ocean view. Room 2020 faced the lifeguard station and a restaurant parking lot. NO ocean view at all. Noisy room. Bathroom fan can not be turned off. TV didn’t work. Nice staff though. Good location

The room was very clean, the front desk people friendly and amenities were great. The beach front patio was a great place to relax and the location was within walking distance to many food options.The only thing that would make this an even better experience was if house keeping did not knock on the door early in the morning (twice) even though the do not disturb sign was hanging on the knob. Otherwise, we would definitely stay here again.

Thank you Expedia for taking action on my complaint when we were in the 1st floor room with all the noise overhead. The Manager offered us a 2nd fl room the next morning due to your actions and made the stay much nicer.
