Great location
Location is awesome. It is with a short stroll to the beach. Staff was cordial. Bathroom was dated. Tub showed rust stains. Worst part was the king size bed. Bed felt horrible. Matress has outlived its lifespan a few years ago.

Beach hotel
I liked the beach access. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just okay. Pool is nice too. Mostly went to the beach. Our room was quiet, you couldn't hear other guests.

No beach view balcony
Most of the rooms do not have a balcony to over look the beach, you have to go outside the room to see the beach.

For the most part, the property was great, but we could not get Wi-Fi in our room and the shower was much to be desired. Had no place to put shampoo and the water pressure was not very good.

The Walkover to the Beach is very convenient. There's a lot of restaurants, shops and things to do within walking distance. The overall prices were very reasonable. I'd go again.

Just ok for an older hotel, carpet could've used a good cleaning, wi-fi not so good and more premium channels on tv would be helpful. Staff was very friendly and helpful !
