Guest Ratings & Reviews
My stay at the hotel was really enjoyable. The room was perfect for us, nice and clean with all the necessary amenities we needed, including a TV, phone, overhead fan, and AC. The gate key provided added security, although we didn't need the AC in the winter months.
Despite the need for redecoration and a slightly stuffy feel in the rooms, the hotel's friendly and attentive service, fantastic location near the beach and great dining options make it a viable choice. The facility has a pleasant, homey atmosphere, even though the rooms could use a revamp.
The hotel was conveniently located close to the beach and offered helpful service, but the room had some issues with mosquitoes. The dining options were limited, yet the location provided easy access to nearby amenities.
