Great location
Location is awesome. It is with a short stroll to the beach. Staff was cordial. Bathroom was dated. Tub showed rust stains. Worst part was the king size bed. Bed felt horrible. Matress has outlived its lifespan a few years ago.

Beach view is awesome but hotel needs some work. The bathrooms are in need of a good scrubbing and new caulking. The door to our room had clearly had an attempted break in with signs of its attempt shown in the cracked vaneer around the lock.

Room was OK, it is an older property that shows its age. Room has been renovated but still has that older property smell to it. OK for a one night stay but not for an extended beach holiday.

Beach hotel
I liked the beach access. Staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was just okay. Pool is nice too. Mostly went to the beach. Our room was quiet, you couldn't hear other guests.

We were there when hurricane Helene hit. Our rooms smelled like mold and the ceiling above the shower (prior to hurricane” had a lot of water above the panel that drained into shower. Second room after moving smelled like sewer as you entered the door by refrigerator.

No beach view balcony
Most of the rooms do not have a balcony to over look the beach, you have to go outside the room to see the beach.

I felt it was overall pretty good pricing and the rooms were actually very nice, despite the actual hotel looking like a motel. I was super disappointed and felt mislead about their "pool". Its this tiny outside pool and it looks disgusting. I didnt even bother with the hot tub.
