Location by boardwalk was great! Wish there was a few more food options available during the work week. Some only open a few days & one was sporadic. Bed was okay, kind of hard for side sleeping. A/C units were very loud, but that helped to drown out neighbors. Great to have the kitchen unit, didn’t have to eat out all the time. Easy walk to beach!

Not worth the money

First off Faulse advertisement! Our room didn't look like the ones they have as examples, our room had carpet, when we took our shoes off it felt sticky and icky under our feet so we kept our shoes on when in the room. When on the balcony you could tell the wood was in need of replacement, when you touched the railing it was loose.The beds were comfy I will say that. When you stepped inside the tub you could feel it sink in, which let me know the wood underneith was rotten. Then a worker from the hotel knocked on our door saying someone from our room reported a water leak....nah we didn't... can we say sketchy?, so each time we went out the room we kept all valuables with us! The view was beautiful, hotel was in a great spot just needs more updates. Really wish I would have went on Google and actually googled the hotel vs what the app said.

We enjoyed our stay. The location was great beach and food was in walking distance. The room needed curtains the blinds did not keep any of the light out. The mini fridge took a while to chill anything. I had a do not disturb sign on the door when housekeeping opened the door. Those few negatives did not take away from the amazing time we had.

Stay was okay. You are paying for beach front. Lots of rain caused the ceiling to leak. Teenage staff member walked in without knocking to try to check it out. Front desk staff was really friendly, but did not receive any compensation for the leaking. Decently clean but can tell upgrades are needed.
