Good for the price and location
The room was cleaner than most.
The bed sheets were clean and comfortable.
The shower was updated.
We were gone most of the day really just there to sleep and shower.
If you want my honest opinion for me its about the people not the place.If the people are good people and treat you right i can overlook certain aspects of cleanliness or property conditions.I would much rather go to a place with imperfections and good people.These people were good to me.Love is everything.

Good for 1 night-quiet room
Clean enough, with minimal toiletries. The rooms are quiet. Was exactly what we needed for the night.

We arrived after 1am. We were given the wrong key to the wrong room.
We after received a new key to another room, to apparently a none-smoking room.
It reeked of cigarettes and weed.
We after move to another room that was right beside the front desk.
Around 2 am we could hear the front desk agent on the phone having a very load and aggressive conversation, that kept us awake.
I was just about to go complain but the phone call stopped.

I enjoyed my stay here. Will definitely choose Magnuson again. The only issues I had was that the pool was down and I didn't know about the $100 deposit. But overall the visit was great

We had the amazing bad timing to arrive when it became certain that the THIRD storm/hurricane was on its way. Not hotel's fault. So we spent much more time in an economy hotel than would have liked. An ok deal, clean—bad that there is no little freezer in fridge—tho is an ice machine below. Bathroom cramped. WiFi fine, lots of stations on TV. Bottom line: place would be just fine if you have normal beach vacation—and you are not there too much!
