Clean, convenient, all the amenities of a basic hotel. Walls are very thin and the convenience of being right off the highway means you hear a lot of traffic. Walkability to Marina Dune Beach is a super highlight!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Did not use continental breakfast, but all other amenities were great and convenient, especially the laundry. Both of the two queen beds were great. Very large television in the room which was great for watching movies, plus the television offered access for external streaming (ex. Bluetooth connection to it). No complaints.

Pretty nice stay overall. Front desk staff are efficient and friendly. There are a few cosmetic things that could be fixed but the overall room is nice. Comfortable bed and a good size to the room (booked oversized room). Breakfast was good but gets very busy so arrive early. Walking distance to the beach was nice.

Great place to sleep. Good breakfast bar. Gets busy though. I had to go to main desk and ask for fresh towels and wash cloths. The room was not cleaned daily. Trash cans on property were overflowing at times. It was just an ok hotel. It suited our needs.

I loved the location, but the bathroom was really small and the curtains leaked water while taking a shower. So the floor got wet and dirty. The breakfast was mediocre, I wish they had more options.
