They let me check in early! The beach access is fantastic. The cafe was convenient and pleasant. The property is a bit old and the room small but everything was clean, the air-conditioning cold and bed comfy.

love this hotel but rooms are so tiny, only 1 bed. We have stayed here 4 years in a row—though will probably stay elsewhere next time

Place was great! Cozy and homey, loved the old fashioned keys to get into the room. Layout of the room was very convenient and the room amenities were right on point for a short stay.

Andrew, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Room wasn’t very modern/ updated but that is not a drawback for me personally. It was clean and well maintained with good AC. You can’t beat the proximity to the beach. Parking can be limited because of the restaurant but they do their best. Will definitely stay again.
olivia, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

It would be better if the restaurant offered COLD coffee. I guess its just my opinion cause the days I stayed the weather was 77F so it was good for coffee.
Hector, 2-night trip

Awesome
Yvonne, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Best place going! Clean and close to the beach. Wish they had more beach loungers and umbrellas. They should tell visitors about reserving them ahead of time or as you check in.
Arnoldo Giovanni, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Convenient for the beach access and dining near. Limited parking space. Staff and cleaning attendants were great.
JoAnn, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

Overall, the place was clean, quiet, and had a friendly staff. The cafe had the best Margarita my gf has ever had, and the food was awesome. However, the lone bed was hard, small (full size, I think), and had an old-school spring mattress that sunk in such a way as to cause the lighter of two occupants to sink onto the heavier user’s side. The water was extremely hot, and the parking lot was tiny and difficult to get out of, as it was a dead end lot that required full sized cars to back out of for the entire length of it. Also, the pool is right next to the outdoor dining area, making it a bit uncomfortable to use. Price, staff, food, and proximity to the beach made it worthwhile, though.
Armando, 2-night trip

6/10 Okay

Check in/out was simple. Easy access to beach.
