Front desk staff EXCEEDED superior customer service. The way they treat you, you would think you are at a 4 or 5 star hotel. Perfect location across from the beach. I really enjoyed my stay here.

You cannot ask for better management staff! I’ll keep coming back here because of the way we were treated during our stay - with kindness - like family.

Short Stay
Room small, hotel dated, but rooms were updated, comfortable. This is on opposite side of the street from the ocean, and this is why the price is a bit lower. Slow elevator, very small pool, but okay for a short stay. The office is a separate small building in the front lot so this adds a sense of security, in my opinion.
