Overall not a bad place. The place was clean and staff was friendly. The size of the pool in the pictures was a little misleading. Great location - was able to walk to restaurants and the beach (about two blocks away).

Easy walk to everything

The staff was friendly and super helpful. My room was very quiet and safe and on Fri night had an amazing view of the fireworks over the bay. Easy walk to pretty much anything. Would definitely stay here again

We had a horrible experience. We had a next door person that was disrupting our sleep all night long. These people were yelling out curse words and banging on walls all night. We complained to front desk clerk to call the cops and nothing was done!

Liked: Amenities
This has been our main place to stay while on vacations, but it seems less attractive now. The first receptionist wasnt as welcoming as the once we've had in the past, now the ice machine was out of service, our room had only 3 pillows, when we asked for more they didnt have any, we needed more towels, but we had to turn in dirty ones first. It just seemed very unprofessional, and when going out for dinner, we couldnt find a parking space. The parking lot was packed! So out of 5, I rate this place a 3. Its a good place, just needs a bit more attention.

It was great! Very clean!! The front staff woman was the nicest person ever! So amiable and kind. Check in was easy. Room was very clean. Pool was great. We also found a place where we could watch sundown and put our chairs out; you could also fish and it was only a 2 min walk. So beautiful. Definitely returning
