Pros:

Was a good location for our trip. Loved having beach access!

Cons:

Pros:

The rooms were very clean and the beds were super comfy. New owners are in the process of renovating so our bathroom was brand new whereas the rest needs some TLC. Right on the ocean so took walks on several occasions. Within walking distance of most stores and restaurants. I would stay here again

Cons:

No continental breakfast which would have been nice.

Pros:

Access to the ocean was wonderful. The room was spacious, clean and modern. The attached restaturant was a little pricey; however the food was outstanding and the service top flight. One small shortcoming was the size of the pillows (a litle small). All in all, an outstanding experience

Pros:

The staff were amazing. The location was great for having kids and a short walk to the ocean.
The room wasn’t the cleanest, little out dated. Lamps didn’t really work. The staff make up for this and it looks like they are renovating the hotel so could be upgraded sooner then later.
