A great location. A smaller / older hotel but well maintained with large room, comfortable beds, great AC and a balcony with sight of the ocean on all rooms. Under the building parking was so convenient and accessible. A nice touch was the coffee machine in lobby for variously brewed coffee types. Lee was very cordial and helpful. Easy to talk to and polite. The building has a walkway to the beach from the upper floors also!
