The place is very close to the beach and splash park which is its biggest plus. Property is outdated but clean. Towels were either old or bad quality, they left lint on us after shower. Fridge was freezing great. There is coffee machine which is great but no kettle.

This property is dirty and the individual rooms are worse. But the thing that stands out the most is how unsafe it is. Rooms are on the ground floor and the windows do not have locks on them, they can literally be just pushed open from the outside. We had to stick coat hangers in the ledges to make them secure, this combined with the transients in the area made us feel so unsafe that we only stayed the one night and checked out early.

The bed was OK and the room was cleaned as best as it could be but the room’s fixtures, furnishing and kitchenette needed replacing. Bathroom sink had a large hole and crack in it, only 2 of 4 light bulbs worked, no hair dryer, fridge had serious ice build up, bugs in ceiling light fixtures. Just needs a complete redo.
