The room was wonderful. It was spacious and clean. The door opened to a large public sun bathing area that had a spectacular view of the ocean with tables. The pool has a ramp that made it very convenient to bring our gear down. The pool has a spectacular ocean view with easy beach access right from the pool. Great place to stay with restaurants nearby. Loved and going back.

The room was very old and is in definite need of a modernization, especially the bathroom. The furniture seemed like it was from the 60s or 70s. Im just glad I stayed there alone and did not bring my wife. She would have flipped out.

It was your pretty standard beach hotel in the winter time. In the summer, you probably don’t notice that it’s not much of a hotel, in the winter, more so, but it was still OK. The only thing was there are no lamps or lights on the bed. I have never been to a hotel or motel that doesn’t have some sort of light by the bed.
