Wonderful place to stay

Our stay was fantastic. Check in was quick and easy and the reception staff were very friendly. We stayed on the 4th floor and had a great view of the ocean and Strand. Easy parking and also a short walk to restaurants. The room was perfect for our short stay. Would definitely recommend.

Liked: Cleanliness
Unit had everything that we needed. Needs a refresh & update. Mould on the roof in the bathroom. Shower curtain looked dirty along the bottom. Glass door to balcony did not latch back because of the air conditioner compressor, so the door would bang constantly in the wind. $3 to hire a pool towel was ridiculous. All staff were lovely. Check in and check out was very easy.
