Great location and great jacuzzi. This town is perfect for biking. We have brought our young kids and bikes and we just leave the car and ride bikes to do everything, the beach is so close as are all the restaurants. Small town vibe that is so sweet.

Front desk person with very poor customer service skills. A team with about 50 teenagers stayed the same night, the entire hotel was a race track for them after 11:00 pm when we called the front desk his excuse was that the guys were young and just arriving to the premises and eventually be quiet. The kids were running in the hallways and knocking doors and hotel personnel never reacted.

The bed had a noticeable dip in the mattress as soon as I pulled back the covers. It was like try to sleep in a hole. Very uncomfortable. Smell of marijuana from the room next door was quite strong. Could hear outside traffic.
