"This is a fairly new hotel and it was nice and clean. The staff were very nice and helpful. The only thing that could be improved is keeping the outdoor cushions cleaner as this is a pet friendly place. Several around the pool area were dirty. Otherwise it was perfect."

8/10 Good
"The property is in a great location with lots of amenities, including 2 pools, a mini golf course, and activities like cornhole boards and athletic equipment you can borrow for lots of family fun. The wide beach offers plenty of space to spread out and enjoy the sun and sand. The check-in process, compared to other similar properties, is a bit of a pain, especially in the off-season when office hours are limited. Communication was plentiful but contradictory. One email I got said keys could be left in a dropbox after hours, but property staff said I had to pick them up. Getting to the room was an adventure, as there is a single elevator in each building, at one end. So... if you're carrying a lot of stuff and are staying on the 3rd floor at the other end of the building, you've got a hike on your hands. That hike takes you down a dark, dreary, and dated corridor with zero signage as to which way you should go. It left a terrible first impression. Once inside, our unit was also pretty dated. There was a tear in the linoleum, an unfinished wall where there may once have been a pocket door, carpeting (a pet peeve of mine in a beach place), and the teeniest tiniest of balconies. Parking was fine, but I can't imagine that there is enough in the busy summer season. Overall, we liked it, but I wouldn't book there again unless they did a major rennovation."

"The Hotel is what it says. Inexpensive, old, close to near by attractions. The AC are window units and noisy. The beds are comfortable, great water pressure and HOT water. At our time the resident staff person Jeanne was awesome. It’s a great place to have a clean room and shower. Fishing, weekend rest. But if you need more I’d suggest someplace else."

"This property is HUGE.. my fiancée and I had plenty of room for the two of us. We will be renting again in the near future for the Seafood Festival and additional vacations. The location is perfect, as we were only 7 minutes away from the festival. The check-in and overall process were immaculate, clean, and had plenty of towels, and wash clothes. We never had to ask for anything additional for our vacation. Thank you for a wonderful and safe stay 😊"
