Convenient walk to the beach and plenty of restaurants and activities. Rarely had the good beach chairs available. We always got stuck with folding chairs you’d be more likely to see on a camping trip. Would be nice if beach umbrellas would be offered, even if for an extra fee.

This hotel is very unclean and very unsafe. When entering the room the strong smell of mold was overpowering. The door did not close properly making the environment feel unsafe and uncomfortable. I would not recommend. When trying to get a hold of a manager it was not possible. Resulting in no refund. Very disappointed.

Staff was nice. Room ready on time. Had to request new clean pillowcases which did not come until I found housekeeping staff on our floor. Carpets were old and badly stained. Bedskirts old and dingy. Bathroom not the cleanest which was reported but not addressed. Did like that they provided beach badges and parking was easy Walk to beach was easy.
