Almost all good, including the friendly staff and the super convenience to the beach! But except for the initial glitch in the beginning. The light switch non-existent… there was no light switch as soon as you enter. There was another one, but I forgot. It’s still all a good place!

The staff were very accommodating to my concerns. The part I didn’t like is they charge $40.00 a night to park which is ridiculous. It is an older hotel but is kept clean. The location is convenient but I think next time we will stay at newer hotel.
