Love this hotel!

I actually stayed here for my sweet 16th birthday weekend years ago! The balcony was great, the rooms were clean, the carpet could use a deep shampooing but I understand with pools and the beach they get dirty. The indoor pool was amazing for my two little ones to swim while it’s cold! But love the staff, our stay was great!

For the price and the view, I would stay here again. The room smelled a hint of its age and the bed needs updating. I woke up with a sore back every morning. Loved being able to listen to the waves from my room.

Great beach visit

The lady who checked me in was wonderful. She really went the extra mile to resolve my situation. Thank you. The room is wonderful: spacious, clean, quiet, and I love the ocean side balcony. The restaurant is closed this week, so I won't get to sample that. The hot tub was nicely warm and felt good. Yes, I would stay here again.
