Allen S., Oct 2025
The front desk woman was fantastic. I got in late, she was just very, kind, and professional. Please thank her for me. Parking was the only issue, but the room was nice and everyone was very friendly. I got to speaking with the guard on my floor, she was so very sweet. The restaurant was great as well was the staff. It was pleasant and peaceful. Ty

For $200+ I would at least expect at least toothbrushes and toothpaste. No kitchenette. It appeared like they want us to only eat in there restaurants. In the cost they add a 25% tip. It was comfortable enough but it was a very basic room. Would I recommend this to a friend? Sorry, I would have to no.

The location is excellent and the staff is friendly and helpful. The standard rooms are small - I recommend the kitchenette. Parking can be dicey, though free valet helps.

Cons (-) There was some noise above us. They used COVID as an excuse to not clean the rooms or empty the tiny trash can, despite all guests testing negative.

Pros (+) The restaurant is really good, it's close to many locations, beach is walking distance, wristband electronic roomkey, check out is later than most hotels,
Cons (-) Rooms need major remodel (very outdated), Parking lot is a terrible one-way to the main lobby, beach towels at front lobby only not in the rooms, they charge $15 a day for cleaning fees, our room had many small ants, trying to get back on the main highway can be irritating due to the construction near the hotel,

Pros (+) Even with the renovations the hotel still held on to it's old time charm. The staff were accommodating, the bed was very comfortable and the handicapped bathroom was a super plus. Mahalo
Cons (-) Breakfast was overpriced. Papaya wasn't ripe. Not enough butter and syrup to cover the very large pancakes, but the people working there were very helpful.
