There was nothing that I did not like.

Five stay staff and location!
Pros:

The staff at this hotel are all SOOOO friendly and welcoming! Every time we arrived we were welcomed with a smile, they were all so helpful, we got a super early check in on arrival and a bag of delicious popcorn on check out!
The location could not get better for being close to the beach and the action of the pier! There is food right outside the door both ways, you can wander a few blocks anyway and find even more food and shopping as well!
I highly recommend a stay here! Super affordable too 🙂

Great weekend getaway
Pros:

Great location with friendly and helpful staff. Christian greeted me when I arrived (2 hours ahead of check in time) and texted me an hour later that my room was ready.
Theresa was there to help when I returned from the excellent Water Grill just down the street.
I had requested a higher floor if possible, and they gave me the top floor.
The only blemish was loud kids waking me up twice in the early hours of the morning.
Not really anything management can do about that, but I was pleased that the valet allowed me to leave my car in the structure for an hour after checkout so I could take a little walk along the pathway overlooking the beach.
All in all, a wonderful break from day to day life!
