The pros: The beds were super comfortable, and the amenities is very good. Lots of outlets for me to plug-in and charge my phone. TV looked brand new and worked great. There was a microwave and a fridge as well.Parking was also terrific. The staff was very friendly, which was a huge Plus. The cons: the floor in our room was actually pretty dirty and into the bathroom as well. Overall, I’d stay there again. Another plus was they are right by the beach.

Clean, convenient, all the amenities of a basic hotel. Walls are very thin and the convenience of being right off the highway means you hear a lot of traffic. Walkability to Marina Dune Beach is a super highlight!

I liked the location of this hotel because I could walk to the beach, but I didn't have any hot water in my room. I tried different times of the day, but I couldn't get a warm shower. I spoke to someone at the front desk the next morning because I still had one more night, and she said I couldn't switch rooms. When I checked out they said they would contact the manager, but I never heard back. I also messaged the property through Expedia, but I never heard back. I wouldn't stay at this property again based on the lack of response. I would choose a nearby motel.

Did not use continental breakfast, but all other amenities were great and convenient, especially the laundry. Both of the two queen beds were great. Very large television in the room which was great for watching movies, plus the television offered access for external streaming (ex. Bluetooth connection to it). No complaints.

Great place to sleep. Good breakfast bar. Gets busy though. I had to go to main desk and ask for fresh towels and wash cloths. The room was not cleaned daily. Trash cans on property were overflowing at times. It was just an ok hotel. It suited our needs.

I loved the location, but the bathroom was really small and the curtains leaked water while taking a shower. So the floor got wet and dirty. The breakfast was mediocre, I wish they had more options.
