Cute spot
Nice little spot for a quick off-season spot. Located close to everything but just far off enough to be a little quieter.

Visited the property off season, it was clean, had heated pools open and a beautiful ocean view! We enjoyed our stay, the proximity to the ocean was excellent and close to stores, bars and restaurants.

Our stay was great. The only issue we had was that there was hair left in the bathroom from the last person who stayed there. I'm not one to complain so I just cleaned it myself, not a big deal. Other than that, our stay was great! The room was comfy and the rest of it was clean!

Property could use some renovation. Doors to room could be easily opened, no deadbolt. Close to beach and walkable. Parking is a little tough. Overall an acceptable stay but a little overpriced for weekdays stay.

There were 10 of us, the rooms are a little dated, but everything was clean. The staff checking in and out were friendly. Walking distance to the pier, we had a great time.

Loved that the walking path to the beach connected with the property. Pool was warm, especially great for younger kids who enjoy the shallow end. Thanks!

Easy access to the beach, and a short walk to the Pier and attractions. The pool could have been cleaner and our shower did not work properly, but overall for the price and convenience we were satisfied.

The property was in good shape and our room had vaulted wood ceilings. It was a very comfortable room in atmosphere and the bed and pillows were very comfortable! The decor and features in the room are dated but well-kept. The balcony was nice and had a table and two chairs that we enjoyed. We would stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay! Nice staff, nice amenities too! Property is a bit out of date, could use a facelift. But it had everything wr needed to be comfortable. Kitchenette was clean and equipped with what we needed.
Pool could also use some more regular cleaning but people do go back n forth from the beach and pool.
Would stay again

Felt like I was staying at my great grandparents - needs remodeling desperately. Liked the staff and service of the hotel but does not match up with the facility. We rented 2 rooms in horizon building. Too small.
Big bummer for the $$$$.

Clean but dated room, nice balcony views
Room was clean, alittle dated, old style fixtures and older chairs that were pretty worn out. Not a deal breaker. Beds were decent. Balcony was very nice with ocean view. Parking was challenging, and the stairs to the upper levels were worn and narrow, not helpful when carrying luggage. Beach was steps from the hotel which was nice.

The room was fine and it served its purpose. That said I felt a little misled by the hotel's promotional information. This isn't "a hotel" with all the amenities that are listed. This is a group of properties all owned by the same company. You have no idea when booking which building you will be in (not all of which are on the beach, some are across the street). The rooms are very dated, cleanish, and like I said it was fine. But very overpriced for what you are getting.
