The walkways were dirty and the elevator shook with a very loud noise. The chairs in the dining area were ripped and worn. The breakfast was tasty with a very nice server. The waterfront beach and boats were a very nice view.

Sweet place!

Perfect location right on the bay and across the street from the beach. Possibly an older hotel with relatively recent renovations. Not especially fancy and definitely on the economical side but certainly nice. Extremely friendly and helpful staff especially Miss Elizabet who maintains the dining area. Such a lovely and kind woman! She was always offering to help with ice, drinks and food. Breakfast was excellent with waffles and lots of other options. I loved the beachy vibes of the decor and all of the free amenities offered. Ice water, coffee and fruit were always available to enjoy. They also had snacks and other beverages available for purchase. Our trip was a little too packed with previously scheduled events to enjoy the bikes or kayaks but I love that they were available. Our son loved the beach and pool area to the back. Very comfortable beds and nice and cool AC. Traffic can get a little hectic. So try to be patient and definitely careful if crossing the street. We loved it here and will definitely stay again.

Do not stay here

The room was filthy. Our feet were black after walking across it after a shower. Shower head is terrible. Bath towels are so small we had to use beach towels. Didn’t smell clean, didn’t look clean. Check in lady was nice. You could hear the people in the room next door like there was no wall. All the conversations, even when they used the restroom. Gross. Will NOT ever stay here again.
