Convenient location. Best price in area. Staff was nice. Checkin and out was easy and quick. Air conditioning was very cold. Ample parking. Shampoo dispenser was empty. The bathroom had an extremely moldy, mildew smell. Basic bare necessities for one night stay.

This property is great because of its easy proximity to the beach-which is so nice. The price is definitely right and it’s a no frills easy hotel to sleep at after a long day in the sun/water. My only complaint is that I tried to access Amazon prime video app and the tv didn’t work and kept showing error codes. Not that big of a deal but would’ve been nice if it had worked

This hotel also wants to see ur guests visa or immigration status. Searching passport for visa page wasn't nice. I suggest that if u have any foreign guest accompanying ur travel, u may need a different hotel otherwise, ur guests may be heckled for privacy documents.
