The staff was very courteous and welcoming, so that was very much appreciated. The room itself was just OK. The flooring was nice, and the beds were comfortable. I know you get what you pay for, but the bathroom looked like it was original to the property built decades ago. It is in serious need of renovation. The ceiling above the sink was open, showing decades-old piping and crud.

Our first room wasn't as good as we expected, the desk clerk gave us choices of better rooms to move into and apologized. She requested maintenance to take care of it. All staff were friendly and helpful. We stay here yearly. Nice place and location.

Basic but seems popular. Nice staff if needed. Parking right outside room but could be noisy if you’re on ground room. Room comfortable as were the beds. Amenities fridge/micro etc. hot water. pool was not heated & small but in Nov was in shade but chairs were in sun but I was allowed to use their sister hotels heated pool. Close to beach & shops. Price ok for what we got but no breakfast there. Would use again though

Staff was extremely helpful. The location of this building makes it easy to walk to most places. However a non smoking room needs to not smell like smoke. Also the build up on the sink should be addressed before anyone else uses that room. Shower was decent but drained slow.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Room not cleaned. Dirty sheets, dirty floors

Our room apparently had fresh towels put in and the beds made, but the sheets were dirty, the floor was crunchy and not swept and there was sand in the shower that would have been swept down the drain by the simplest cleaning. We checked in around 8PM so it wasn't a rush job. But there sure was an envelope left asking for a tip! The front desk lady was nice, the location is good. The hotel is old but seems to be making an effort to update. Our white bed linens were stained yellow in places and had cigarette burns. The air conditioner worked fine, although it was loud and the shower had hot water. Overpriced but that's beach hotels.

Close to the beach and restaurants. If you are looking for quiet this isn’t the place. If you are looking to have fun and somewhere to pass out drunk this place will work.
