It was a good room, we enjoyed staying where we got our own private balcony which was perfect for my daughter. However, the hot tub was green without any sign of its safety status to use or not, that made the visit inconvenient for my family. The pool was at an okay temperature where I was actually able to enjoy a nice swim with my family which made up the inconvenience.

The room was only ok. The carpet was really old and ripped up in spots. There was also a weird odor in the room. The proximity to the beach was good and the breakfast and employees were good. I wouldn't stay there again though. The price was too high for the condition of the room.

The hotel was clean. The breakfast was very nice. Really enjoyed being walk-able distance to the harbor and close to everything. It is a noisy place though. More like a motel than an "inn".
