8.6/10 Excellent! (1,004 reviews)
The property is older but the room was clean. There are no premier channels to watch just local channels and there was a line running down the middle of the tv that was annoying to see when your trying to watch a show. The so called ocean view is hindered by brush and tree over growth. I wouldn't pay an extra $20 a night for that but you can hear the waves crashing on shore. Walk to beach is more like a 10 to 15 minute walk depending on your speed. Comfortable beds but a bit pricey for a no frills hotel.
