Older hotel with a great beach location

Older hotel with a great location. They've done a good job of keeping it updated. Not a luxury stay, but good enough if you want a central location on the beach with amazing views. I was on the top floor and had floor to ceiling ocean view, as the entire wall facing the ocean is a giant window. Staff is very nice. I will say it took 40 minutes to check in, which was both strange and frustrating. Other than that, we had a nice stay here.
