    My ocean-front room had a gigantic sand dune in front of it.

    The location was excellent. The beach wasn't crowded, and it was a short walk from the room. Would definitely stay again.

    The room was a little dirty, but not terrible. There were splatters on the mini fridge door, the walls could use a clean, and the window in the bathroom was very much in need of a clean. BUT all of the big things (beds, floors, surfaces, bathroom) were very clean and tidy.

    The perfect beach location. Oceanfront with direct access to the beach. Far enough away from the public parking that the section of beach behind the hotel isn't too crowded. The staff was very friendly. We arrived early and were informed that we could use the parking lot and access the beach, or use the pool while we waited for check in. The view from the patio was amazing for sunrise, and the beds were clean and comfortable! I'd stay here again.

    No elevator. Though there is a lift for luggage. We were on the third floor. We both were nursing injuries.

    Right on the beach. Wonderful family that takes great care of their guests.

    The toilet wobbled a little and the counter tops, refrigerator and coffee maker were not clean. I found one little piece of hair on the bed sheet of each on the two beds. The rest of the room was ok.

    I breakfast was provided. The location was excellent!

    Checking in with an online call was a bit awkward. The line was not good and the machine could not read my driver's license. The place it is a bit old, but that was mentioned in the comments from previous guests. Un update will make it wonderful.

    The place on the beach is fantastic, you need a third floor room to enjoy the ocean view. The room was very clean and the hotel personnel very kind.

    Rooms could use a little TLC - tired looking. The heater didn't seem to be working properly. Indoor pool was very cold.

    Ocean view, clean big room with comfortable beds. There was a nice indoor pool and hot tub. The beach access was great.

    No continental breakfast. Was not advised in advance that a daily dog fee of $25 would be charged at check-in. The windows were damaged and we could not see thru them. No Kleenex. No lid for ice bucket. Coffee brew was extremely weak.... like drinking water.

    Although an old facility, the price was great the room was exceptionally clean and the staff was extremely helpful. We loved the balcony, sunrise view, and easy beach access!!

    We were told a maid would come by and never did, no big deal. There was construction on the outdoor pool that started at 8am sharp outside our room. Understandable, but somewhat annoying. Honestly all of that was ok, but the beds were killing us. Full, not queens, and super hard (but that is a preference thing!!). Overall, still would go back.

    The people at the front desk are lovely, the view is fantastic, the pool and jacuzzi are clean and as pictured, the rooms are clean and as pictured.

    Upon entering the room, there was a strong, pungent odor, I'm assuming cleaning supplies, should try another scent/brand because it did linger until dark.

    Situated close to eating, activities, shopping.

    The towels were very dingy. They smelled okay but should be bleached white. We did not use them. The screen door did not shut properly and had no screens.Its nice to hear the ocean. Also maybe the pool could be open a little later.

    The room was nice. It had many amenities. The swans on the bed was a nice touch. The price was not bad and the view is amazing. The staff was polite.

    The only thing that I would change about this place is a new lock on our door because we had to fidget with it for a good minute to get it to lock properly but it wasn’t really a big deal we got it locked after pushing the door in a little

    I honestly loved everything about this property. The staff was very welcoming, the stairs are honestly not as bad as other reviews make it seem. The room has everything you would basically need, dishes, dish soap, body wash, shampoo/ conditioner, fridge, stove, tv, balcony, great lighting. They also have a good amount of outlets if you have multiple things to charge. The pool is very nice also we only got to enjoy the hot tub this time but it is definitely worth testing out! Will definitely be back for another stay!
