Exceptional hotel staff
We escaped to the hotel after being evacuated from the fire. The hotel was one of the very few NOT to jack up their rates to take advantage of people leaving. Our check in was incredibly compassionate. They waived the pet fees and resort fees. They even had a small gift for our dog. I was blown away by the kindness of the staff while we were escaping the fire. I am so grateful to this wonderful hotel and everyone in it for being a safe place to us to go and showing us such wonderful and attentive service.

Hotel was in a great location close to the pier and shops short walk to both. Surcharges and resort fees were unexpected extras and we felt for the price overall wasn’t the best value.

Overall we had a good time. The staff was very friendly and the hotel restaurant was pretty decent. The meh parts were parking (across the street was fine but inconvenient) and the very bizarre updates. This is an older facility with popcorn ceilings. The update they did seemed a little chaotic, as the faucet barely reaches the bowl of the sink and the toilet paper was mounted behind the commode. Did anyone try to use a bathroom with these fixtures?

The room was small. Was ok, clean, but nothing special. Front desk staff was pleasant and did refund my 65 dollar parking fee when I mentioned that it seemed excessive along with the 40 dollar resort fee. This was appreciated.
