This property is under construction and the interior is not in any condition to have guests. I checked and and then left 10 minutes later. The hallway carpet was filthy and the rooms were run down, dark and obviously being prepped for painting etc. with chips everywhere and spackling all over the walls. I wouldnt have booked this property if i had known the current state. I moved to a nearby hotel.

We had tickets to the Belly Up. This hotel was just a 10 minute walk. It is also right on a nice bike path near the coast. Check in was easy and breakfast was plentiful.

It was so quiet and calm and very little, if any noise from outside could be heard. The complimentary breakfast was simple, yet delicious. Staff in charge of the small kitchen were most polite and very professional and always was quite helpful, should a person require any assistance or help with actually anything, they tried to help each of us in a special way.

The people that work here were absolutely amazing. They went out of their way to help. Unfortunately the hotel was being renovated and it was a total mess. Our carpet was wet the whole entire time. The elevator was broken part of the time. It was just really old and does need updating.

Overall a nice stay

Overall was a good experience. I would say the amenities exeeded that of a 2 star. The kids really liked the breakfast with the pancake maker. There was some remodeling going on which would have been nice to know about ahead of time but it didn't affect our stay. Some complaints I have were with the room itself. No functioning fan in the bathroom left the room very steamy or stinky. Second, most of the electrical outlets were so worn out anything you plugged in fell out. It was mostly annoying if you were trying to use it. I do believe this is a potential fire hazard so I do hope this gets addressed with the remodel. Otherwise there were cozy beds, great staff and the short walk to the beach was fantastic.
