It’s nice and the location...

Liked: Location is nice very popular! Hotel was nice and clean. The staff was great!
Disliked: I didn’t like that people was being racist and i probably wouldn’t come back. It just ruins the whole beach, once I find something negative and uncomfortable. I probably won’t go back. And very small bathroom

Disliked: COuld only stay for one night

Beachfront Bargain

Disliked: Clean baseboards and some items a bit better.

Superb

Very good

We didn’t have a shower...

Liked: Love the fact it was only a walk away from the beach!
Disliked: We didn’t have a shower curtain when we got there but we notified the staff and they got one right away.Also, something they couldn’t help was the power went out. But all in all it was a great stay and I would stay there again!
