Amber, Oct 2020
Pros (+) Staff was very friendly. Location is right on the beach.
Cons (-) The room could use some tlc. Paint was chipping in the bathroom and the walls were dingy. Also the LED light for the AC unit was SO bright it lit up the whole room at night, making it hard to sleep.

Pros (+) The location of this hotel on the beach is the only good thing.
Cons (-) This hotel is very budget and is under major construction which is not mentioned on the website. Check-in was in one the hotel rooms as well as Breakfast. Definitely a motel not hotel and way overpriced!
