Clean rooms, comfortable bed, good location. Nice continental breakfast. The only disappointment was one of the two rooms booked didn’t have any ocean view, even after booking very early.
This was the view from the room with a view. Our 2nd room we booked looked out onto a weed filled backyard.

Liked: Cleanliness
The NOISE! Walls and ceilings have to be thinnest plywood available! No noise dampening at all. All noise sounds, such as heaters, toilets, vents absolutely echo everywhere— from other rooms! My heater is in a corner with a cabinet in front of it, so very inefficient and loudly comes on every few minutes. Thank goodness it’s one night, and never again. Check in lady was the sweetest ever! So, staff is wonderful. Building itself is NOT!
