The hotel is right on the beach with free parking convenience is the best thing. The rooms are clean although a little older, every room has a view of the ocean and a balcony. As a rating it deserves 4.6 stars

Paying for pier proximity
Overall, the unit was dated. The kitchenette appliances seemed at least 10 yrs old and had rust on them. The room itself was a decent size and could have fit a sofa for added confort. The bathroom seemed like they were trying to update to make it more modern but use of cheap printed ceramic tiles made it look cheap. Mold stains in the grout lines made it feel dirty. The proximity to the pier and the pillows on the bed were the highlights. 2nd floor hallway reeked of fish 24/7. Also, they only have 26 parking spots for 32 rooms. So when booked to capacity, 4 patrons have to riskbtickets on the street. Family had been going here off and on for 50 yrs, not worth $250 a night so we will most likely not be going back. You are paying for proximity tonthe pier. Caters to fisherman. Owner could update and make the place great again worthy of $250 a night, even $350-400 a night.
