The showers were hot, the tv channels were very good. The bed was very comfortable and the ac unit worked very well. Hotel is very close to the beach for fishing. I’ve stayed at this hotel at least 10 times. The pricing is usually very good also.
Really a great location for kitesurfing. The upstairs is definitely hot as we read from previous reviews so we didn't use that floor. So easy to walk to the Tugs bar and had great drinks and food from the food truck that was present.
Property was well maintained. Check-in was great, everyone was friendly. Room was very comfortable. We loved the convenience of having the beach just steps away. We would definitely stay there again.
The hotel although a little old and dated was clean and comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Great place for a long dad and son fishing weekend.
Robin was very pleasant and helpful with finding restaurants to have dinner. I like how you can pick up your replacement towels and beach towels without waiting on staff. It was convenient to the fishing charter. Will stay again.
