Our room was very musty and had a strong mildew odor. We bought a few air fresheners that helped make it tolerable. Overall location was great and staff was nice.

The tv screen welcomed me into the room. The bed was comfy, breakfast was delicious with many good options, and the coffee was good black. I would definitely stay again. Literally right down the road to beach.

Don’t stay in room 146. It is across the hallway from housekeeping. At 7am I was awakened by houskeeping staff talking loudly and laughing. I arrived very late and needed to get some sleep and it was impossible.
