We stay here for a few days every summer because of how convenient the location is and how affordable the price is. If you're very particular on how you like things, this is not the place for you. The rooms are dated but clean. The beds aren't five star, but they're actually really comfortable. The air conditioning always works (which is always my biggest concern) and the check in/check out staff are always friendly. You should not stay here if you're used to the Ritz. I've seen reviews of people saying they could feel sand on the floor sometimes, but it's the beach, so of course they can't get up every grain of sand. I'm very low maintenance and as long as it's clean and the air works, I don't really care about anything else. We will definitely continue to stay here!
