4/10 Fair

It’s what you think it is. Good place for a quick stop to be near the beach. My girlfriend didn’t like the leaky fridge and did not get in shower. But it’s walking distance to why we visit here. We had sex in the bed. So that was 5 stars.
Frank, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A pleasant surprise! comfortable. Close to beach and dining. As a last minute affordable spot we will be back!! We slept soundly and felt safe! If my kids loved it you know it was the bomb.com.
Donna, 1-night trip

Could use a remodel
Ken, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Older hotel, great location, no frills but convenient and clean rooms. Nothing special to mention. Budget friendly considering other options. Heated pool was a plus, no breakfast offered but plenty of nearby options within walking distance. I'd stay again for the value and location!
