3 out of 5 stars

Staff was really nice! The room was tiny, the bathroom missing a hanger, the bunk bed was extremely dangerous, two loose handles, ladder slide off and the steps hurt the kid feet when climbing up/down, and when the bed down, the sharp corners if not careful will split someone head/face, and one of the closer door came loose! The property was also under construction so… Way over price and a very dangerous stay.

Book a room with two bunks and a murphy bed. Good size for family of 5. The hotel is at great location. Walking distance to downtown and beach. Front desk staff was amazingly friendly. She gave us many ideas of where to visit. Definitely coming back.
