Wouldn't repeat. Wasn't the value we paid!
Pros:

Breakfast was good. Location good.

Cons:

We booked a beach front room. Upon arrival we were told at front desk "they don't have beach front rooms". That's what I paid for! I was told the pictures on website are misleading!
While on beach, we saw 10 beach front rooms!!!

Beach 2026
Pros:

How close we were to the beach. The pool was great, too, especially since we couldn't get in the ocean due to double red flags. The room was clean. Liked the gym too.

Cons:

Comfy bed, just need to be queen vs full. Leaky ceiling in the breakfast area. Had to pay for parking bucks $15 a day=$45 for 3 days. No where did I see this info. Had to text the front to get the toilet seat tightened and the toilet roll holder was loose too. The toilet seat was too close to the wall/sink area... I had to prop my left arm up on the sink while using the toilet.

Hotel Lacked Maintenance
Pros:

Breakfast was great, although they had a ceiling leak that was dripping on our table while trying to enjoy our food… Room was easily accessible from the pool (like we wanted), but the bathroom / walls / window were dirty and did not seem to be actually ever deep cleaned… Pool was nice, but also did not seem to be maintained well. Our thermostat jumped up / down on its own. On our first night stay, we woke up to our thermostat calling for 48° temps and the room was 60°, so extremely chilly and uncomfortable sleeping conditions for my young children. Additionally, the water pressure was less than normal and it took 20-30 seconds for the water to even come out of the shower head. The tub plug + sink plug were both stuck down and we had to pry them up to drain water when taking a shower or brushing our teeth… A lot of things that need improvement and did not impress me, especially for paying over $330 / nightly..

The best part of the trip was the friendliness and compassion from Pebble at the front desk — She is a ray of sunshine!!

Best place around
Pros:

I gotta say this hotel is the best. Compared to the other giant hotels all around it looks pretty unassuming however don't judge a book by its cover. It has fantastic beach access, breakfast every morning, a nice quiet little private spot to sit outside for each guest (great if you get overwhelmed with crowds from the bigger hotels), very clean and is pet friendly. It’s a nice quiet little place but easy walking to all the crowded places nearby. However by far the best is the staff.
Every person is super nice and friendly and they go out of their way to make your stay comfy and enjoyable. I have to shout out to my personal favorite Pebble. She was a joy to interact with every morning with her bright and cheery disposition and great big smile! Not to mention if you have a request (even an odd one) Pebble make sure to get it done no matter what it takes!! Can't wait to come visit again.

Decent stay and the perfect location
Pros:

The location is unbeatable, and the walk to the beach is seconds. Ample parking, friendly staff, included breakfast, clean pool and a small store for those late night snacks. Ice machine and hotel doors are very accessible and convenient.

Cons:

The bathroom had mold in the shower, the AC rattled, the shampoo/conditioner had not been filled, there was little to even no water pressure at times.

The building to the east had tour busses stop there 1-2 times daily while we were there, which made access difficult to impossible at times so schedule around those.
