Place was very simple but clean. Had your basic needs. Room was clean and comfortable. Pool was a lot of fun and clean. Overall loved my 2 day stay. Will definitely stay again. Only dislike was that they didnt offer breakfast.
Location was great. Lots of great restaurants nearby. Air conditioning worked great. Stay cool. Housekeeping could have been better but we did get fresh towels after turning in the used ones😁Although we didn’t utilize the pool it was clean and well used by all the children staying this weekend. We parked along the building since the parking lot you had to pay every time you parked. Other than that highly recommend.

we stay there all the time, it’s super cheap and everything is really nice and clean!
The staff was helpful and friendly. The location was perfect. A short walk to the beach and many nearby places to eat. Parking at the hotel was available but as the weekend neared, it was nearly full. The room was clean and simple.
Clean room and very comfortable stay. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and communicated well throughout the visit. The pool area is a great place to relax. Overall, a very pleasant experience and I would definitely stay here again.
Lilly and Jose were very professional and cared about making my stay wonderful. I really appreciated the hardwork from the cleanng ladies. I will definitely be staying here again.
I did not read the hotel amenities clearly, and was shocked when checking in. Parking was $10 a day and no breakfast, coffee in office only. I should have read them more closely. All the king size beds are on the second floor. No elevator and steps are the short ones that are very hard to climb. All the rooms face towards the center with a very small pool in the middle. The kids screamed excitedly till the pool closed and then the adults stood on the balcony and got good and drunk till about midnight. With all the rooms facing inwards even a small sound is clearly heard in all rooms. It's a new hotel so it was clean.

The beds are small. The comforter had a large bleach stain with other small grease like stains. However it was nice to be able to be given the opportunity to check in early with a small 35$ fee.
