The hotel is older and could use some updates. But it was clean. Was concerned being right on a main drag, but was surprisingly quiet in our room. There is a barrier between the rooms and the road. View from patio was awesome. Got pics of a beautiful sunrise right out our door. Lots of baby ducks to make us smile as well.

Smelled old. AC was just portable units and did not keep the room cool enough. Pool area was nice. Beach and balcony both nice. Id consider staying again but hope they work on the AC and smell of old in the rooms.
