Beautiful hotel. Clean room that smelled great, with really nice amenities. I love how the TV has real cable and not hotel cable with limited channels. The hotel staff was wonderful. Also, the ocean view rooms are the best!

I extended my stay and made every effort to ensure payment was handled correctly. I called the front desk to confirm the charge, and I even went in person to ask if my physical card was needed. The receptionist assured me multiple times that the card on file had already been processed. The next morning at 9 AM, I was woken up by the same receptionist stating she was unable to run the payment—implying that I was intentionally avoiding it. My card had an issue earlier that day, so a processing error was possible, but the interaction felt unnecessarily accusatory. About 30 minutes later, she called again saying her manager wanted my card “in case I left without paying,” which was both unprofessional and disrespectful, especially considering I had proactively tried to resolve this in advance. I even told her multiple times that I would come down shortly to provide the card, yet she still came to my room and knocked on the door, which felt intrusive and unnecessary. This experience reflects poorly on the hotel’s customer service. Staff should communicate clearly, verify information properly, and treat guests with professionalism—not suspicion. In a situation like this, how would a guest reasonably be expected to respond? To be spoken to and treated this way feels less like a misunderstanding and more like a lack of training and basic courtesy. At what point does this cross from a simple mistake into complete disregard for the guest experience?

This was perfect. My friend’s band was playing across the street and we were able to walk to dinner. Go see my friends band and then hit a bunch of clubs down the main street and then come back to the hotel. It was great.

Clean, safe, affordable, and in the perfect location to get around town. My only complaints are the hot tub jets weren't working, check-in desk was empty for a long time and I had to call, and vending machines didn't work with cards. I would stay here again.
