Won't stay here again. Not recommended.

Cockroaches!!! When we checked in the lights were on now we know why...The roaches go scurrying when the light is turned on!!! Hotel needs work... Floor in the room was questionable and patio was breaking apart. Elevator sounded like it was going to break down at any moment and started to move with doors open!! Employee at front desk wasn't very friendly when we checked in...maybe they were just having a bad night? Employee at check out was very nice. Breakfast was good but it was very busy and crowded as the space is small with not enough seating for everyone.

Great front desk staff. Room was clean and ready, nothing fancy. Good for our1 night stay. It just had a musty old carpet smell to the place. The parking was a little tight if you have a big car. Free breakfast was good and well stocked

Unfortunately, the room was extremely dirty - particularly the bathroom. The main areas were also dirty and there was a foul smell all around.

Clean, nice staff, minor updates

The hotel is on the west side of the Seawall so the beach is less crowded. The hotel is nice and more parking in the back, some is covered. The breakfast was good and the staff was nice. Our room was clean, but the tile floor had a few broke tiles that were annoying to step on, the sink was not sealed well behind the faucet and if you have kids the dish remote was old and did not work well. Minor complaints, we had the double queen room with balcony, good size for 4 people, desk, 2 extra chairs and a refrigerator, microwave,coffee maker and iron. For our purpose we were not in the room much but it was perfect to rest and have breakfast before your next days adventures.

The room was but the bathroom was in terrible condition. It looked like there is black mold on the ceiling and the door frame was half painted. I went down to get breakfast and noticed and an employee using his hand without a glove on moving the eggs around in the container.
