AC worked, room was clean but spare; no phone and needed airing out upon arrival. Price was primary consideration for staying here. Marriott next door had food & drink, Uber service to & from airport and pier were good.

Everything was great! Lots of mosquitos and gnats were in our room, but overall it was a clean and subtle place to stay for one night.

The Room was great for what we needed it for. The shower head was messed up a bit and there is no ventilation in the bathroom so you will definitely have to open a window for air but besides that, it was a good experience. Limited parking so if out at the end of the night, you'll have to hope that parking is available. Any additional requests we asked for as far as towels or other things, they were quick to take care of which I appreciated. Great location close to the beach and other shopping and dining. I would stay there again!

we loved our stay here! the wifi was great for when we needed to work on our laptops, it was so nice to be able to walk around the area especially being able to walk under 5 minutes to the beach & it was pretty quiet so it was a great place to get some rest!
