Consider other options

We were a bit underwhelmed at this place. Given the nightly rate, I would've expected a little more. We understood this to be a budget option, but hooks came out of the wall, the cleanliness left something to be desired, and the walls were paper-thin (we could hear the toilet flushing next door and our neighbor slept with their TV on, which we heard all night. Check in was acceptable, and the bed was surprisingly comfortable.

Had a lovely stay. Staff was super friendly! Room was small but cozy and comfortable. Bed was very squeaky whenever you sat on the edge.but not to the extent that I couldn't handle the noise. Loved the room decorations ! Shampoo, conditioner, and soap were very nice. Towels were soft. Even gave us free cinnamon rolls every morning from the restaurant next door! So yummy ! Definitely will stay there again!

Good Location but do need customer service

The location was excellent. The service could be better. We have trouble with remote control which would not allow to change channel. I had to do it manually. There were not service in the evening. I was trying to find a ice machine for ice which was not available. I tried ringing for service at the lobby but there were no person working. Overall, if you are looking right at the pier, this is the place.
