The hotel was comfortable and as clean as it could be with older carpet in the room. It is definitely in need of updating. The staff were all friendly and helpful. Breakfast was part of the booking, however it was a very sparse offering and quite disappointing. The hotel location was excellent for walking for dining and shopping options close to the waterfront. Parking was available at the hotel.

Perfect for families

We have stayed here many times and will continue to stay here in the future! We had our three small children (including one with special needs) so we stayed in the family room. It is perfect for families who want the comfort of home away from home. The room is clean and updated. The hot breakfast in the morning is just what we need to get the day started. The location of the hotel is perfect, as it is walking distance to shops and restaurants. We had a great stay and are looking forward to our next stay!

The location was excellent and within walking distance of shops, dining and beach. Parking was excellent. Breakfast was typical. The facility, while clean and comfortable, was older and still had carpet. The staff was friendly and helpful. Overall, it was a nice place to stay.
