Ruby at check in was very helpful and any staff I came across was always smiling and nice… for those of you with a stroller FYI there is a ramp to the right of the building that I found out upon checkout. If you plan on going to the beach get your towels at front desk before leaving and walk through the entrance by 14th street bc it has a sturdy walk way not the entrance straight ahead of hotel to where you walk through sand. Beach loungers and umbrellas are $21 each to rent, and do sell drinks and snacks.

Take a pass. Location is good - but..........

Don't bother with the breakfast --better off going to Denny's around the corner which is fresh as opposed to nasty staff at the property next door or a 'served' buffet of wet eggs, soggy toast, uncooked potatoes. You can't brag about two bottles of water a day when you have to ask for them because your room gets "freshened up" 2 times in 6 days.

Been there a couple times. But it needs better updating. Our blind was torn, lamp didn’t work, bathroom was updated but sloppy. Bathroom in lobby was out of order and one was dirty. When I called for someone to fix our tv they told me to use the converter.. duh … they finally came after 2 calls For the money you spend,, it should be a much better place. Not returning
