Perfect location for everything. If you are fancy you may not like this place, but if you are a sensible person with normal expectations this is a perfectly clean and decent place to rest your head right in the center of all the action. My daughter absolutely loved the pool and the staff were super friendly. Again we were not there for the hotel room. This is the best place I found after 20 years of visiting every summer for the location and budget
