Desk staff was very friendly. Coffee in the lobby was good. This is not a luxury hotel. Furnishings need updating but they were clean. The location was excellent. Loved that it was right on the beach.

My stay went well but hotel needs to be updated. The stove and room were not the nicest but for a last minute get away it was ok.. you can hear every door opening and closing outside of your room. They only give you small towels and no wash clothes. So if you’re planning on staying here I would advise you bring your own.

The room was soooo gross! All the walls were dirty, food stains on the ceiling, I felt gross touching anything! Bugs in the room, the microwave was on top of the fridge and hung over the freezer so you couldn’t open the freezer. Musty smell that even lighting a candle couldn’t combat. Bed was so hard - we put our stuff down, went to the ocean, came back and booked a room at a new hotel. No, I didn’t get a refund, I just had to pay for a whole new place- that’s how bad it was there!!!!I could not stay there, it was that bad!!!!! Avoid like the plague!!!!!!
