I couldn't have asked for a better location. The hotel is right on the beach, in the heart of everything. The rooms were clean and cozy, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. While there were some issues with the sliding glass door, the overall experience was excellent. The hotel may need some upgrades, but it's a great value for the money.

7.8/10

The hotel is nestled steps away from the beach, offering clean and comfy rooms. The staff is top-notch but the dining could use some improvement. Despite needing updating, the location is unbeatable, right by the ocean.

Rooms

8.0

My room, despite the late arrival, was immaculately clean. The queen size bed was cozy, and the amenities like the flat screen TV were great. However, the sofa pullout bed was not the most comfortable, with a thin mattress that made me feel every bar and spring.

Service
