Enjoy staying here in the off season when its less crowded and people (fishermen/women) are more respectful. July and August tourist can get pretty loud and be more disruptive. Hotel staff are very professional and helpful. We appreciate the water hose out front where we are able to rinse our truck after coming off the beaches. Hotel has become a little worn, and in need of renovations. But its comfortable and clean. Very convenient to the 4x4 ramps.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
There was no staff to greet us; instead, there was just a kiosk that worked sporadically at best for checking in. The rooms were dirty, and in one of them, I found a large spider that terrified me into thinking I wouldn’t be able to sleep in that room. The paint touch-ups on the walls were mismatched, the carpets were damp, and overall, it was a terrible stay.

We were very pleased with our stay. The room looked immaculate. It may have been recently remodeled as the carpet, furniture and linens looked brand new. Location is convenient and staff courteous. Great find!
