Look for alternatives!
Building is old. Room had a disinfectant smell. Probably, to mask moldy smell. No housekeeping. No safe to keep any valuables/ travel docs in the room. Breakfast was pretty basic. Air-conditioner in the room - so you keep hearing the constant hum and start/ stop of the AC. Pretty expensive for the kind of room and comfort it offered.

Great place! Loved the free cookies and popcorn in the lobby. There’s a shopping complex nearby which is super convenient. And there is quite a bit of parking space.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
When we arrived with a reservation, I was surprised that not all rooms were cleaned and ready. Remodeling is occurring with work continuing until about 6pm. It was a bit noisy, and we could smell sawdust through the vents in our room. Shortly after we checked in, a large group arrived with slamming doors, running up/down the hallway, loud voices, which, along with the remodeling, did not make for a relaxing evening. Many options for breakfast but few for gluten free. The rooms were clean except the carpet looked worn.

Good hotel for a good price!
Actually a really nice hotel. Nice pool and close to the beach by driving. The surrounding area felt safe. The bathroom in our room was recently renovated and was very modern and clean which was a major thing. We actually had two separate room places you could close a door, kind of like a suite. It was very nice because it came with two TVs. Having a balcony was nice too. Breakfast was average, not anything special but not anything poor.
