The older lady from the front desk was very rude. I did not understand why she was so upset that my husband did not wait in the driveway for instructions before he went to park. Her facial expression was so rude, shaking her head and all that. I confronted her right then there. Asked her why does she have to be so upset about it because my husband can just easily park to the right parking area. She did not even apologize and just rushed giving us the keycards. We loved the place and enjoyed the pool. But with that type of service, we cant go back. That lady shoul be trained proper customer service because if she continues doing that, its bad for your business.

Property is clean but dated. Perfect for short stay, but bathroom quite cramped. Security lock on door didn’t work. Basic amenities without upgrades, but good on a budget.

The staff was nice. The room was ok. The floor could’ve used a little bit more attention. Overall it was a relaxing stay. It was quiet close to the beach and close to shopping.

I likes the colonial style of the room. Cleanliness could improve in the bathroom and the room had an overall beachy atmosphere. The cross breeze from the shared patio to the open windows facing the ocean view was amazing for fresh air. Parking is tight for my large vehicle but off street so I managed.enjoyed the walk to the beach and easy access to the parks.

The room standard is not much higher than cheaper motels, but it is okay. What makes the difference is a swimming pool with heated water and a hot tub, as well as great location - close to the beach, a lake, and a playground. My family spent a nice time there.
