The room was clean, the breakfast was great. There was construction going on in the building that caused a couple inconveniences like the hot water or elevators which was understandable but overall was a great place to stay for a few nights. Id definitely go back.

The hotel is in a good location a few blocks from the beach. Breakfast was ample and the breakfast staff were attentive to our needs despite the busy Thanksgiving bustle. Rooms and bath are clean though could use an update. The best option in the area, a corner away from the local police station. 2 minute drive from all the nice shops and eating places. My only real complaint are the carpets, specially the ones located at the stairwell, smelled like metal and pee. Coming from a hospitality industry your front desk could use some update on their training on customer service. (Just saying) a smile goes a long way.
