We were in need of an in expensive place to stay for one night while we visited a dying friend and this place was the perfect spot. It was probably a bit outdated, but everything was so clean and it was adequate for what we needed. It was not fancy, but had everything we needed. It was across the road from the beach, east walking to the town and a large mini golf park with water bumper tubes was across the road.

We were given two different rooms before we were shown one that was close to being ready to be rented, The first one had one bed folded up against the wall. The one we ended up in had the bathroom fan hanging by the wires. The rooms were being renovated and were not ready for occupancy. Management was not cooperative when we decided to check out early.

Great staff Meets the needs and was straightforward booking process. The expedia site is misleading, though. Says Amex accepted and damage deposit of $100 Its actually $150 and they don’t take Amex. Otherwise no complaints

Couldn’t open the door when we got keys. Room reeked and could feel springs through the bed. Felt super uncomfortable and sketched out. We left 30 mins after checking in and booked at another hotel.

VIP was a bit outdated but the place was clean and the staff was very friendly, would be nice to have an ice bucket in the room. A broom in the room might be a good idea just for sand from the beach. Awesome to get free mini golf we loved it!
