The staff was courteous and the bed comfortable. The continent breakfast was decent. No complaints as this is a no frills hotel. The room does have a microwave, sink and refrigerator for families looking to cook some meals in for saving money from always dining out.

First thing my daughter noticed was a roach on the wall over the bed, she would not go in the room. Second room was not impressive but it lacked extra guests so that was good. Location was excellent.

Breakfast was good, room was so- so. We rented a suite - walls were scratched, carpet was frayed on the edges, lamps were crooked (one didn’t work) cupboards in kitchen scratched. Suite was large, nice view. Pool and hot tub were nice. Enjoyed being on the marina. Staff was nice although I mentioned the garbage in the hallway an he said staff would remove it the next day…

Lovely location. Needs some updating and some seriously upgraded breakfast facilities but as the whole area is due for demolition and a laguna style modern renovation (sad to lose all the characterful buildings and restaurants) it really doesn’t matter. It is clean, basic and the staff are friendly.

The bed was comfortable. Everything in room is brown and outdated, rugs are dark...feels dirty, shower wasn't working properly. Bare necessities. Although, this place was the cheapest, yet expensive for what you got, in the area. I believe this place plans to renovate soon. good luck
