The front desk worker was nice and let us check in early. It’s very confusing on how to get in and find your room as you have to walk down a dingy hallway to get in. The room was alright. The TV was a size of a computer monitor so I wasn’t a fan.. the only thing that saved the trip for me was how comfortable the bed was! Also. Make sure to bring your own comforter as you only get a top sheet, no blanket. Overall, it was alright just for the night but this wouldn’t be my top choice. Just thankful it was in walking distance to the beach!

Not worth it.

They offered no room service. Had to go and get amenities for yourself in the front office. No dressers or hangers for clothing items, had to live out of our suitcases. And had a huge ant problem in our bathroom. In the middle of a remodel. The staff was nice on a positive note.

The people that were working there were nice. The office was stocked with drinks and snacks which was great. They had a pool table and a bar. Across the road from the beach. I didn',t like the artificial turf around the pool. It was gross and the water was super hot like a hot tub. Not hot from sunshine hot. Hate getting a room with a pool I can't swim in. Didn't get a blanket on the bed. Just a sheet which was weird the floor is tile and felt greasy. Had to wear shoes the whole time. Parking is very small strip. The place run down and needs a lot of work. Not worth 200 bucks a night!!!!!

This is the cheapest room we could find so close to the beach. I wasn’t expecting much. The front desk employee was very accommodating. We were missing towel and blankets. There had a mishap with the maids. A couple other rooms were missing towels as well but the manager came later and restocked them. Our room was not swept but everything else seemed clean. There is no microwave but there’s a community one by the office. The outdoor space is nice, it had a lot of action going on on the front street but the community area felt safe. I’ve definitely experienced worse. But of course, better as well. For the price compared to the others is was what we needed, a safe place to sleep and shower.

Staff was friendly. Bed was comfy. Generally fairly quiet. Floors were sticky. AC was inconsistent, temp/fan fluctuated even though it was set to ON, so I kept getting warm and cold.

Hotel is extremely run down. Room was covered in sand including the bed. TV had wires hanging out of it and the whole outlet for the TV was ripped out of the wall. The shower was stained and also filled with sand. When I requested a refund the staff dismissed the idea and then continued to try to sell how great the hotel was. After working with Hotels.com I was able to get a refund for 1 night but as of writing this the hotel has not given me my security deposit back. I would not stay here unless it is absolutely necessary. STAY AWAY.

It was a nice homey environment. While the room we stayed in definitely could have used some work, the mom and daughter ( I think ) that run the place are so very kind. The pool area was nice, and overall I would love to go back and would love to see some improvements on the rooms.

Room is so small and the whole area of the property seems like it was already condemned. The photos are so misleading. I felt unsafe and disgusted. First room had a fire ant infestation. So I moved a room. Second room had roaches. So I got a full refund thankfully and left. Only upside was the staff was friendly and kind and prompt to give me a refund and work with me to change rooms when I first did that. Not even worth adding photos. Just don’t stay there.
