The place was nice and quiet. My only complaint was is that the bathroom was cold and that condensation on the toilet tank is dripping on the floor, and that makes the floor wet.

The hotel was nice. Very close to lots of dinning, grocery store, gas, the beach. Very convenient. The man at the counter was also very nice. Was sad they only have the mini golf on the weekends. Cuz it looked very fun. But besides that, everything was nice.
