Good sized rooms with comfortable bed and very clean. Great location, quiet and easy walking. Staff were pleasant and efficient. Breakfast is a little basic, bagels, toast, cereal, some fruit but fresh and pleasant to sit outside by the pool. I would have appreciated an espresso machine.

It was ok, it was a decent place to stay. Nothing spectacular. Good thing is we came late and there was someone there to give us our key. The room was a bit stuffy and the windows do not open. I would suggest at least a microwave in the room.

Everything was good for the most part! Be aware of a couple of things: 1) you can hear other people in other rooms. 2) Rooms could use more vacuuming along the edges and corners of the carpet… was not a fan of seeing years of dust along the perimeters of the carpet in the room. 3) Also was not a fan of how much mold there was in the crevices of the windows and air conditioning. Otherwise was a good stay, comfy clean bed, nice safe area. Overall 3.8/5

Checked in at the hotel for the day, moved luggage in room on the third floor. Came back after dinner and the whole place is dark. The front desk with their flashlight informed us they were not informed they will have a blackout. Ask for refund and girl said she has to inform owner. My husband took 3 flights of stairs 2x to get luggage down since I cannot do stairs. Front desk girl helped us call the neighbor hotel who had lights for transfer

Great option with or without kids. Right across the street from the beach. They even lent us a beach umbrella! We did experience that the amount of chlorine put in the pool and hot tub was a little too much for our skin, but others may not have that issue. I would just be mindful if you have kids with sensitive skin.

Room for handicap was unexpected

The room for handicap was not as comfortable. We are not handicap. The beds are much lower which made it difficult to get in and out of and the shower felt odd. We tried not to let water get all over the floor since its an open floor for wheelchair access. For a handicap person the setup would work. It didn't work for us.
