Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Friendly welcoming staff. A gift of bottled water & snacks is provided at check-in..Hotel parking is convenient and very reasonably priced. Plenty of dining options within walking distance. Room was clean & spacious with added bonus of new t.v.s in both main area and bath. Pleasant add-on was a deep jetted spa bathtub. Note- handicapped access is at back of building. Overall very pleasant experience for the price.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Arrived slightly after check in, only 1 room was available due to housekeeping being behind and was informed 2nd room would be 2 hours later.
The one room we did have was nearly out of toilet paper and soap and body wash was empty, so clearly housekeeping didn’t do thorough job on cleaning the one “ready “ room.
The rooms are clean, the staff is nice, the breakfast is great, especially if you have kids. You can walk to the beach and to restaurants and shops. I am planning to go back real soon.
Older property but they seemed to be updating it. Great location. The room smelled of stale smoke; sometimes the public areas smelled of marijuana. Housekeeping never made the beds or vacuumed the rooms; they only exchanged towels or took out the trash every other day or so. Our kid's feet were black after walking on the carpet..

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
There was a leak in the ceiling in the bathroom. It couldn’t be fixed right away, so they made a temporary repair, and comped us the room. By the time we left, mold had already started to appear in the ceiling. Besides that, it is a great layout and the location is great.
Everything was great. But i don't like sleeping were animals are allowed. I didn’t know until after we checked in. There were several guests with dogs of all sizes.
Check was easy and staff was pleasant. Room was clean and parking was decent for $10 per night. Spaces are tight though for a midsized suv. Lots of places to walk to. Would stay at again.
