Great little spot

Great stay, nice that they clean every day and the breakfast is good. Location is amazing. Kids loved the indoor pool open till 10. Only criticism i have (and its minor) is that the fridge is small and the only mirror is in the bathroom.

This hotel has a great location—splurge and get an ocean view room, you won’t regret it. Breakfast was a basic hotel breakfast, but I appreciate me the variety and having it available. If I could have changed anything about my stay, it would be to have had a hook for the towel next to the shower, a side table next to the easy chair and ottoman, and doors with a softer close (hearing slams all night was a bit irritating).

Our stay of one night was so-so. Positives: located in a popular area, liked being able to walk out to the beach, the weight room, beds were comfortable, friendly staff, cucumber water and breakfast was really good with lots of choices. Negatives: pools looked decent but very small and too crowded to use, the building itself was not well maintained and didn't feel that safe with people passing by, the bathroom was tiny and the front door opened into it which was awkward, the carpet was damp and made our socks wet and dirty. The back door with access out to the dunes was nice, but we were unable to lock the door since it had a separate key. It would have been more convenient to be able to come and go from there as well, rather than having to go around from the front door to get to the beach. Enjoyed sitting out there with the table and chairs though.
