Spotless room! I loved the extra pull down bed. I needed an elevator and they changed our room so my sister could use the elevator with her hurt foot. So convenient to walk across the street to the beach and enjoy it and the sunsets. The chairs are so comfy and convenient too. We loved everything about our stay but he warm friendly staff was the best. Especially Noah. WE really appreciate the welcome we recevied and even parking under a "carport" was amazing. Breakfast was great too. We want to come back soon! I would recommend to all of our friends.

For some reason this hotel uses very noxious cleaning materials. There’s no other explanation. The chlorine smell in the room made us ill and you can not even open a window to help. We checked out a day early, the next morning and were refused a refund for at least the be second night. Never ever would I recommend this hotel.
