The hotel is on the beach. Hotel is on the older side but well maintained and very comfortable. Mercedes at the front desk was very nice and informative. We really enjoyed our stay.

Staff was great, location is perfect, but the hotel itself is old and run down. The ocean air has taken it's toll on the property

Great location for the price! My ocean room view was amazing - left my slider door open all night to listen to the waves! Walk next door to Woodys for great breakfast, etc! Walk a few minutes more to beach bar for drinks & fish tacos!

The bedding was terrible, the pillows were very lumpy as if the foam was falling apart. All the pillows were like this, they may have been the original ones since 1963. The bed duvet was also lumpy. We will noy be staying here again. The hotel offers a great location for beach goers.

Exactly what we were looking for! Located on the beach and easy to walk everywhere! We would stay again!
2-night trip

2/10

Dirty, nasty, would never stay again. The only good thing about this hotel is the location and the restaurant next-door. It was filthy and I didn't even want to get into the bed. And it's expensive too, not like an economy hotel. Too bad because the location is amazing.

3-night trip

4/10

I got two room one for me and the wife and one for the three adult children. I got the mini suite white was like a motel 6 room. I’ve had nicer motel 6 rooms. The small rooms shower was too small for the kids they had to use our bathroom which was also small. Staff were nice and friendly and the location is awesome right on the beach. The restaurant had great food and good service. I won’t stay there again. Much nicer choices available in the area. I was a little embarrassed when I saw the kids room.

Old hotel that has been remodeled but still bare minimums. $240 a nite Motel 6. But, location location location. Poor internet. Basic cable and no movie channels. Not able to use firestick. No golf channel. Tiny shower & water closet. (Toilet room) No kleenex. $34.70 a day to park car. (Used to be free) You stay here for one reason, LOCATION!
