The website said the construction would be done early Oct. No lobby, no ice, small room to register and minimal breakfast choices. Minimal amenities in room, though very clean. Easy walking to areas of interest and beach.

The rooms have already been redone and are surprisingly nice. A real value at this price point. The grounds of the hotel are still under construction, so the outside looks a bit messy. Great location, helpful staff. Great price at $118 per night in July.

We had a great stay. They are remodeling the lobby and rooms. The finished rooms were very nice and aesthetically pleasing. There is so much to do and eat in the surrounding area. And a 10 minute walk to the beach!!! Can’t beat that. The area felt safe. Would definitely recommend if on a budget.

Overall a solid hotel. Walking distance from the train station, town shopping, and the beach. Rooms are newly remodeled, but the hotel is still under construction. The bed is not the most comfortable and the room does not get very dark at night. Clean room
