Rooms need updating and bathroom was a bit dingy. It served its purpose for the two nights we stayed there but in the future I would stay at the Coast right next door. The pros to this place is the area it’s in. You can walk to the beach and restaurants within 10 minutes.

When we checked in the staff were accommodating, explained to us about the free mini golf course and where we can access with free ice and our spot for free parking. They also showed us the access to the beach for a short walk. Inside our room spacious. Washroom was cleaned except that the floor wasn’t cleaned for our three days of stay. Kitchen was okay curtain was undone one ring, no ec
