Overall, this hotel is a good value, with pleasant people. The breakfast is sub-par, with no juice and tasteless scrambled eggs. Charging an extra $25 for parking is not nice.

Great stay that will make you want to come back!

Everything was amazing. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They acknowledged our presence each time we came in and exited. They were eager to help with anything. They made us feel welcomed. The breakfast is generous. There is something for everyone. The TV's are updated with Smart TV's. Rooms were bright and cherry and clean! We loved everything!

Good location. Clean and modern…staff was caring and helpful. They provide some useful amenities like free beach gear (chair and umbrella) each day. Coupon for free mini golf (right next door) and discount at restaurant next door that was excellent. Only pan is the $25 per day parking fee! This isn’t Washington DC or Boston….stupid fee NOT provided when making our reservation on Expedia.

The property was very clean, looked like it was just renovated, staff was all friendly and well trained. Good location. Negatives : $25 a day for parking ? Housekeeping if needed $25 per visit. The breakfast was great but they need to put a small garbage bin by the coffee station for creamers and sugar package.
