The room was nice and quiet and we loved that the day we used the pool and hot tub no one was there so we were able to enjoy ourselves. Also the fact that the pool was heated was so nice! The staff was very friendly, would definitely stay there again.

All the staff was great. The hotel is a little dated. Layers of paint covering damage and erosion. Location was a lot farther from the beach than they portray it. No curtains just shutters which didn’t block out the sun breakfast was plentiful but typical hotel quality. Beds were hard but also just typical hotel quality . Parking lot had a couple of sus activities going on and is in the back where I’m sure it isn’t monitored .
