Nice little budget hotel for an overnight stay. Staff was friendly and check in was simple. A parking lot in the middle of the property. There’s a pool site. Locations is good with restaurants nearby and walking distance.

This property is a definite hidden gem. It’s downtown, close to restaurants and shopping, and close to the beach. The pool was a nice wind down after being out during the day. We really enjoyed our stay and will be back again soon!

Some of the staff members were friendly. Others weren't. The nightstands don't have power outlets. So you will need like a 10' charging chord!

Great room! They were gracious enough to upgrade us. I also left an item there and they were willing to send it back, with some legwork on my end but I’m very grateful. Would definitely stay again!
