The hotel is old and it shows in the room. The AC unit was not very effective. But everything was very clean and the staff was nice and helpful. Breakfast was ok but the choices were limited. The location is the best feature of this hotel: it is a short walk to the beach (around 15 minutes), a short walk to the main area in town with all the restaurants and shops, you have two entrances to Marginal Way very close. You can park your car and not take it for all your stay!
