My expectations weren't high. I was looking for a standard beach hotel. What we got was a nicely updated hotel that was convenient to the beach, clean, and quiet. It also had the best pillow I have ever slept on. I came home and bought the same one. Wonderdul experience. We loved our stay and we will return next time we are in the area. Perfect for us, two adults and one toddler.

Loved the self-catering aspect and the generosity of the amenities in the laundry/business center. Pizza restaurant on one side and another restaurant on the other were so convenient. No noise from street or other guests. Hope to stay there again!

Comfortable.

We stayed in barracuda 1. Room was amazing, nice to have a pool table, full kitchen with kitchen supplies. Only complaint is you can hear the guests upstairs walking around constantly and hearing loud creaking. Didn't bother me much but could understand if others don't want that noise. Still a comfortable and relaxing stay. Would recommend.

We arrived about 1 hour earlier than the check in time, but the staff were able to get us in early. The room was very clean and comfortable. Wifi was good and bed was comfy. We had a full kitchen that was well equipped. Bathroom was spacious with a great shower! Highly recommend.

Overall it did its job. I think that there are some improvements that can be made. The building itself is old and dated, so the rooms feel old and dated.

People next to us had 2 dogs that they left in their room when they went out. Plus they were yelling at each other. They smoked pot and it infiltrated our unit.

I enjoyed my stay, place was perfect for my day adventure to O.S. Wish the amenity room was better advertised, as I didn't know until I was leaving. Loved the book in my room about the area. My next trip I would love to see or do some of the suggestions. Thank you for the great stay. My room was clean and perfect size for me.
