Pros +

  • The place was quiet, staff was nice, coffee shop inside hotel was good and outside seating was good.
  • We had a good stay. We enjoyed the food and firepits that were available at the property. Great location.
  • It was right on the beach . It was clean and quiet

Cons -

  • Hotel had pet hair on the bed, some pillows had spots like it was spot treated with bleach or something and the air filter was nasty! Not sure when the last time it was changed out.
  • The ceiling fan in the room squeaked every time we turned it on. The third floor residents were loud getting up in the morning. Parking was awful with a standard truck and $30.00 per night.
  • There wasn’t really anything we didn’t like
