Pros:

Location was good for our trip.

Cons:

The room was clean and comfortable but could use an update. Some new flooring and general maintenance would go a long way.

A Nice Little Getaway
Pros:

The staff was very nice. My room was quiet, comfortable and clean. Having an oceanfront room made it even better! I stayed there late March. I'm sure the crowds will pick up soon after the kids get out of school for the summer! I will stay there again!

Cons:

The bed was a little harder than what I'm used to, but I slept well. Sometimes the AC would make weird noises, but I always take my white noise machine anytime I travel and didn't hear it at all at night.

Great value for the price!
Pros:

The view and location were great! The staff were very friendly.

Cons:

While the rooms were recently updated, there were still some things that needed attention. (ie: stained couch, bed frame was metal and did not feel stable).

Beautiful sunrises, quiet moments, and phenomenal memories!
Pros:

I heard about this gem from a great friend of mine. Checked it out and we wanted something that faces the beach but budget friendly. We found this sweet place. It’s peaceful, wasn’t loud at all. Friendly people and most importantly Tiffany was soo helpful during our stay!! She went above and beyond to help my family feel comfortable!! We will be staying here again! I highly recommend getting a kite and flying one it was soo amazing!! We also had our outfits delivered here for our family portraits and Tiffany was so helpful in watching out for our package.

Cons:

I wish it wasn’t as cold and rainy during our stay but it made great memories!!

Pros:

Very friendly staff. Right on the beach with balcony views and nice pool. Located in between condos in a much quieter area but yet everything was close, restaurants and bars and music. The hotel had a convenient small mini mart right on the property which was nice if you needed anything. We will stay there again!

Good value and mostly clean but dated.
Pros:

The ocean view was fantastic. The bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The room had ripped curtains and was very dated and the tv wasn’t a smart tv so I could not watch my shows on my Netflix account.

Great last-minute booking at a fair price with beachfront views!
Pros:

All rooms are beachfront! Wonderful to sit on our private balcony and watch the sun come up or listen to the waves. Very clean, good hot water. Liked that they staffed the front desk 24 hours as we had to leave before the sun came up!

Cons:

The outside was a little dated but certainly functional.
