Good hotel but i probably wouldnt stay again due to the lights being so bright. they use blinds and dont have curtains/drapes with a very bright hallway light. we had to stuff pillows and blankets on window and it eas still bright enough to walk around without risk of tripping. without that you could pribably comfortably play board games

Great location 3 minute walk from the pier and several shopping and dining options. The property was nice for an affordable room. The room included a stove which would be nice if you were prepared to cook. It’s a nice basic clean room. The only real complaint is the bright lights on the exterior hallways that make the room seem like it’s daytime in the middle of the night. The little blinds don’t do much to keep the light out. Our room was pretty small so that light affected all of us.
