The rooms are small, but they are clean and tidy, and the bed was comfortable. The common area outside area was comfortable sunny had comfy chairs and table.

The only good thing about this place is its location: it is literally right across from the beach. Other than that, the best way I can describe it is "felt like the most expensive Motel 6 I've ever stayed in." Attached photo is of the "Courtyard view." Yes, that's a ladder leaning against the wall about 2' from our window. And yes, that's the entirety of the "included breakfast," which I would basically consider decorative and not worth touching.

The Hotel is in town within walking distance to stores and restaurants. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Ticket office for excursions is close by also. I suggest paying a little extra and getting a room overlooking the ocean.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay was adequate - upon arrival we found no accommodation for handicap - so 2 of our family were challenged to navigate a very difficult set of stairs. It was limiting on our stay because we could not return to room in between activities due to this. Our handicap and senior family members had to remain downstairs because of difficulty climbing and no other access for them to get to room. The breakfast provided was rolls and orange juice. We didn't even have hot water for tea. I would not consider this even a continental breakfast as advertised. The room was clean and staff were courteous so the stay was adequate. My disappointment was due to the handicap limitation and sub standard breakfast provided.
