Beautiful hotel very close to the beach. Staff was so kind and helpful! Only downsides were the pool isn't heated (it was a chilly day and we wanted to swim but without heating the pool was super cold) and no coffee machine in room (but there was freshly brewed coffee in the lobby). Had a wonderful stay and would def stay again!

Not the basic Motel 6…clean, safe and beach views! Parking was the only issue, we parked on the street which was safe but it would’ve been nice to park on the property.
