James, Jul 2020
Pros (+) Literally 5 feet from the sand. Traveled during the Covid but it was great!
8.8
Very good
Anonymous, Dec 2018
Pros (+) Location, location, location! You can’t get any closer to the beach, so many restaurants, shops, bars in walking distance. Super convenient!
Cons (-) You need to take it for what it is. It’s an older hotel that could really use an upgrade but it was what it was and you couldn’t have gotten anything better for the price. It was all about the location for us - morning coffee on the beach
