Nice hotel with rooms ...

Nice hotel with rooms that have great views of the ocean. Our room was on the first floor facing the ocean and it was great! The room was clean and you can choose if you want your linen changed daily. The front desk was helpful answering our questions. The local free shuttle service was super handy to get us to nearby locations. If you have your own car there is limited street parking and the hotel garage parking is $35 per day.

My husband and l ...

My husband and l arrived on Sunday May 7th 2023 about 3:15. We knew we were early, but went ahead and checked with the desk. We were greeted by a young lady named Rayne. She was so friendly and when we gave her our name, she indicated the room wasn't quite ready and it would be about 15 minutes. She offered use a drink coupon for the bar and we told her that would be a great start to celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary. She checked us in and we went to the bar and ordered a drink. The view was amazing. After about 10 minutes, Rayne found us to let us know our room was ready and in celebration of our Anniversary something was going to be sent up to our room. She is a credit to your hotel staff and we feel she went above and beyond by giving us great customer service. We stayed in an ocean full view room. The room was very clean and spacious. As others have indicated in their reviews, the hotel is dated, but we have no complaints about the accommodations. The ocean view from our balcony outstanding. The hotel is situated very close to many restaurants you can walk to in a few minutes. The beach easily accessible and you walk straight out of the hotel to on the beach. The only negatives, apparently the city is doing drain improvements, so every morning starting at 7 or so and lasting until 3 the loud pumps were going non stop. The signs indicate they will be working on these until 12-31-2023, so if you stay on the side connected to the street expect the noise. After 3 it was quite and the ocean waves can be heard inside your room and that was great. The sound proofing between rooms isn't as good as newer hotels, so you could hear muffled conversation. Other than that I'd give our stay a very high mark. This beach access is great for smaller kids. The kayak companies launch from in front of this hotel, so all day long you have groups of kayakers paddling out to sea in front of you. They didn't bother us at all.
