We enjoyed our family vacation at this beachfront hotel. The location is perfect, right on the beach, and the hotel was clean with friendly staff. However, the experience was somewhat marred by inconsistent room cleaning and limited breakfast options. Overall, it's a great spot if you're looking for something simple and affordable.

The rooms were nice and clean, but we faced issues with them not being cleaned daily. Additionally, while spacious, there were some cleanliness concerns upon check-in.

The hotel is right on the beach, making it super convenient for anyone looking to enjoy the ocean. Additionally, it's just a short walk to restaurants.
Dining

Breakfast was decent, but I wish there were more varied options. The long lines for made-to-order items were also a drawback.
Facilities

The pool areas were fantastic, especially the kiddie pool, which the kids loved. The overall setup of the pool area was well done.
