Super nice staff. The hotel is located in a perfect spot with great scenery, coffee shop and bar across the street and 10-minute walk to beach and boardwalk. The staff was accommodating when we needed an extra bed. Could not be happier with our stay.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This property has a retro feel to it which added personality to our stay. The room was clean. The beds were mediocre. The pool was pretty but chilly and the cement around the pool area is slanted which lends to an off-kiltered feel to swimming and sun bathing. The location is wonderful with easy walks to beach and shops/food. Parking is easy in and out. We visited in an heatwave and struggled to keep the room cool with fans. Overall we enjoyed our stay.

Overall we enjoyed our stay. The hotel was very dated, but comfortable, great location and safe very helpful. Te accommodation was clean and very quiet. The sofa bed was not comfortable and my teenage kids complained it was not the best bed. I would recommend this place.

If you are looking for a hotel with nice amenities and comfort this is not going to be for you. This is an old school, bare bones place. Having said that, it is impeccably clean and the staff could not be nicer. It also has a full kitchen which we did not need. It also would’ve been nice to have a Brita pitcher to make filtered water and extra toilet paper.

Great value considering location

Great location, enjoyed the big rooms, loves that windows all opened to enjoy the breeze, full kitchen was super nice for longer stay. Beds could use updating to newer more comfortable mattresses, and bathroom amenities were lacking, but otherwise a great value and comfortable stay!
