Gave this place a 2 star only because we had an ocean view. The room had a weird odor I couldn't identify. Everything was old, small, low, and cramped. The window in the bathroom faced the hallways (they all did) so if someone took a dump, it would smell up the hallway. The top of the blanket on bed was itchy. Just was not impressed in the least and will not be staying there again.

There was a stench in the room. Such bad smell that i couldn't even sleep. I opened the balcony door, but that made us cold. We didnt leave the hotel because there are few in the area with elevator. We are elderly. It would be the last time i will come near this hotel. They have the nerve to open these filthy and possibly health hazardous conditions to the public. I hope it was not mold that i breathing. Because after my complaint to the front desk the next morning, the clerk told me that they had cleaned the carpets. And maybe, they hadn't dried. Worst hotel ever.

Rooms are clean but Bathroom is tiny, barely room to get dried after a shower. Buffet breakfast room also very small and not really large enough for the number of guests, we had to wait to get in for breakfast. Overpriced for what it was but served its purpose as somewhere to sleep.

Enjoyed our stay.

Great check-in experience, good parking situation, easy to get to room. Inside the building is large open air center with nice fountain feature. Quiet room, and very comfortable. Nice balcony with chairs to overlook ocean. Cute, quaint, little windows with blinds in bathroom that open out to the walkway to your room, but not compromising privacy (and make for a great night light if you leave the blinds open). Completely enjoyed our stay.

Not worth the price.

Wasn’t worth the cost. The best part was the ocean view but there is no AC. There was a fan in the closet. The room was extremely stuffy and it got quite hot with the sun coming straight through the sliding glass door. Plus the heat from the spa below us seems to make its way in the room. The spa had been closed most of Saturday due to needing a jet cover repaired. Our screen on the sliding door kept popping off the railing. There were long black hairs on our towels. I will say Harry at the front desk was very nice during our stay.

Best value for the area that offers a comfortable stay, simple breakfast, and good location. Front desk was hospitable and friendly. Beds were comfy and room clean. It’s a beach style property so very minimal but actually had a big spa that the kids were able to enjoy when it got too cold outside. We never used our car and could walk everywhere from the hotel. It was sunny during our stay so the room could get a bit stuffy in the morning/day but we left the patio open and they have a fan inside to help. A plus was having a convenience charger!
