Untimely construction

We’re it not for the construction and remodeling going on next to our room I would rate it 5 stars! The location only a couple of blocks from the beach and within walking distance to The Funk Zone was excellent. I would definitely come back one construction is over with.

8/10 Very good

Really wonderful property form the price. My room needed some repairs and updating, but the pool was heated and the person at the front desk was friendly. The property itself is very well kept and a stone's throw from the beach. I would definitely stay here again.
