There is no beach view from the hotel, it's too far inland. There was construction going on that we weren't aware of, so the lobby was rearranged. Our room was clean and lovely, I liked the shampoo and body wash provided, a standard, simple room for a quick stay.

The hotel was clean and also had wonderful staff members. I wish the contenintal breakfast had more items to choose from though, was sort of small. Our room was decent, but only down side was it was facing the intersection so a little loud, and also the random freight trains that went by early in the morning. My husband and I would definitely stay there again and maybe it would be finished with the remodel..
