It’s a yes for me
This is a wonderful hotel. Rooms are updated and very comfortable. No bugs and always clean. Plenty of parking so you can enjoy a short 5 minute walk to the beach. Right next to the freeway just how I like it. I love the sound. A hot breakfast is made with love daily along with complimenting drinks. Staff is so nice and very welcoming. You will definitely enjoy your stay.

BIG SPIDER IN OUR ROOM!
We found a big brown spider in our room! and a few ants. We gave the spider to the front desk and hope they will get a bug guy out to spray.

A good place to stay
I've been here several times. It's always nice and clean. Right at the beach. The walls are thin, and the beds are doable. They serve breakfast every morning and have fruit and hot beverages all day. The staff is friendly and accommodating. You wake up and walk out not even five min walk to the beach/sand dunes and nature. right at the freeway too. Can't beat the price.

The staff was great. The room looked just like the pictures and was clean. The breakfast was good, with an excellent variety. The dyers were out of order, as well as all the vending machines.

Property didn’t have hot water, when talking to the front attendant they questioned whether we knew how to turn the water on. We explained that we did know and he yet again asked us about 7 times if we it was just our problem. After he said he would send someone up to go and check it out and they never came. It was very disappointing. The weather was about 60° out and I still had to shower with freezing cold water. Terrible experience with this specific staff member. Check in staff member was amazing and a sweetheart.

there was no park for kids like in the pictures, the breakfast this morning was bacon eggs and potatoes my son ate the bacon and it was under cooked and my son got sick and threw up. the bed made noise when you rolled over. You could also hear people outside the door partying and laughing until 12 at night. The rooms need to be updated. the paint was peeling off the walls and it even had a poster about exposure to asbestos and what to look out for.

I was pleasantly surprised as I entered the room and saw how clean it was and how well made the beds were. I also liked that there were plenty of towels and toiletries. I didn't like that the toilet felt as if it were going to topple over and when I stepped into the bathtub there were cracks in it.

I liked that the rooms were clean and had plenty of towels and toiletries. The staff was friendly and attentive. The woman at the breakfast area was courteous and taking care of the area well. I wasn't impressed with the toilet moving as if it was going to topple over and the tub had cracks in it. Also, we were able to somewhat hear between rooms.
