Reception people were nice and hotel was located close to the beach. Hotel is a little old though and needs updating. Decent for the price.
3-night trip

8/10

The room was as advertised. It was clean and had a nice outlook, and the location was great. The A/C is old but worked well; however, it was a little loud. The man at reception was friendly and welcoming. The car spaces on site are small, so if you have a large car, it may be a very tight fit. However, there is plenty of untimed street parking nearby. Would I stay here again? YES.

Great location, walking distance to restaurants, beach and ocean pools. Although its an older building, the rooms are very clean and the beds are comfortable. Check in was easy and the gentleman at the front desk was lovely. The cafe downstairs is perfect for breakfast, their smoked salmon bagels are exceptional... great coffee too! Will stay again
