Comfy bed but you can literally hear every noise !
Bed was super comfy. Beach was right behind the hotel. Plenty of places to dine at. Front desk staff friendly and helpful. Housekeeping in the morning are so freaking loud don’t expect to sleep in. In fact everyone is loud including the people staying at the hotel. If you’re a light sleeper, this hotel isn’t for you!

Perfect little beach spot. Walkable to the beach, the pier, the park, and all of the local dining and shopping. It’s an older building, so expectations should be managed

Stay somewhere else
Very run down hotel. Located on very busy street. Tiny parking lot that you had to pay an extra $30 for!!! Very small room and very old. Window unit air conditioner that sounded like a plane landing and was located in room near bathroom. The guy said to close the bathroom door to get the air to go in the bedroom. Old and not very clean shower and restroom. Beds were comfortable. Very expensive place to stay and not worth half the money. Yikes.
