Overall, the room itself was very nice. The location is excellent. The biggest negative is the PARKING. Twice there was no parking available in the back lots by the rooms and I had to ask the front desk where I could park. It was around 11 pm both times and both times the front desk staff person said, “I don’t get your issue. There is one parking space open behind you right next to that truck.” The space opened when we were speaking as someone was idling in that spot and then took off. There were only open spaces in the back lots where the rooms are after 8 am and before 7:15 pm movies at the local theaters end. These details make a trip successful. Great location, clean and well kept rooms but frequently no parking spaces available by the rooms.

Pool icy, no lights. One hot tub was warm. Folks above us turned out to be construction crew. Noisy at 4am. Why would you put early waking folks on the third floor and us, a Vaca traveling family below is baffling. We would like a refund for that night. It sucked. But, next day they moved us to 316 - third floor, corner. And, that was great! Office was closed when I tried to get a towel at 6pm. That sucked too! Location was killer. Open air market with great breakfast burritos and coffee just across street. Lots of surfing just a five minute walk away, including the wharf. Not far from the boardwalk.

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was clean, the staff was very friendly, and the location was great (I specifically chose it because it's close to the beach but not directly on it, which cuts down on noise). The only complaint I have is that even though it was a non-smoking room, there was somehow a lingering smell of smoke.
