I was skeptical when I saw the price, but this hotel was great! Staff was friendly despite being woefully understaffed, and everything was nice and clean! The only things I didn’t like were the lack of ice machines and breakfast. It’s a great location and the room we were in even had a full kitchen which I didn’t notice when booking! Beds were a little firm, and a/c was struggling, but I’d definitely stay again!

Think twice
Rather old room. What I would call typical ocean vacation room. Beds are very hard. Shower requires two hands and Herculean strength to get it to turn on. When checking in I provided a different payment method than the one I booked the stay with and they charged the wrong card.

First and foremost I booked my room at the cost of $487 but when I arrived the cost had went up to $586 not including the other fees.. I booked to pay at the property and they tried to take money off my card before I arrived glad I had it turned off. Never will book that hotel again

All good fine stay I recommend it, the beach is at walking distance even from their other part of the hotel across the street where I was staying. Thank you by the way Expedia you told me will be on the main hotel but it wasn’t. But I still have a good time.

Hotel was okay, problem is the hidden fees when you get there! Plan on an additional 150-200 bucks, also no breakfast! Rooms a bit outdated and a bit moldy smelling! Pros are nice pool, beach access, close to everything like pier park. Would I stay again yes but tell people on a budget about fees during booking!

First let me start with whomever is the manager on that hotel, needs to be replaced. I walked in to my Room a saw multiple hornets flying and bug on top of the sealing, and when i went to the office to tell the manager that my kid is allergic to bees, honest esc.his response was, I CAN'T DO NOTHING ABOUT IT. With the only attitude. And storm into his office.
