I would recommend the hotel. It was convenient, close to main highway but not on the highway, quiet, friendly, and was clean overall.
Positives: Manager was very helpful and friendly.
Negatives: They had trouble getting the right number of towels and wash cloths in our room. The main blanket had stains.

I would stay again. We spent most of our time in town or at the beach and it was a clean and decent place to come back to. The staff was courteous, helpful and friendly. We made a good choice.
Positives: Neat, clean and conveniently located.
Negatives: Cheesy decor.

Rooms were spacious and very close to the beach. There was a smell getting inside the room, I suggest that air freshener should be used or eradicate the smelly odor.
Positives: Very convenient to freeway & beach.
Negatives: No balcony or lounge to sit & relax.

We found the accommodations to be comfortable and clean. Areas that could use improvement is the sheets did not fit the bed and so they were constantly coming off and the continental breakfast was so!
Positives: Friendly staff, nice area, away from high way noise, close to areas we needed to travel.
Negatives: The continental breakfast was very limited, there was no elevator and I had medical problems that required me to be in a wheel chair.

Great price for location. Has been remodeled. Sheets did not fit bed and we had to ask for more towels.
Positives: Great price for 5 minutes from the beach. The hotel has been remodeled photos are outdated.
Negatives: Fitted sheet did not stay on bed, not enough towels.

Overall, the hotel is very good value for money. The quality of the room exceeded my expectations and had all the facilities that I needed. However, there is a problem with the staff attitude here. On my arrival the woman on reception could best be described as civil, rather than friendly, and on the day I left she was extremely rude and entered into a strident argument with me, calling out after me as I left the hotel!
Positives: Very good value for money.
Negatives: Poor staff attitude. Receptionist was very rude to me when I checked out.

Positives: Friendly staff.
Negatives: NA.

Doubtful we will use you again for hotels as you need to let customers know & have a choice! Room was small- only 2 pillow & 2 icky towels. Bathroom was so tiny I kept hitting my elbow & there was no place for hygiene items. No mirror except tiny one over sink. Continental breakfast looked icky too- why bother.
Positives: They downloaded our e boarding passes when asked. Bed was comfortable.
Negatives: Renovating- we would have stayed somewhere else. Tiny bath. Icky towels. 2 pillows.

It is in a good location for the place I needed to go to. It is under repair on the outside and painting etc being done on the first floor. It will have a better curb appeal when finished.
Positives: The staff and the comfort of the room. The hotel is under renovation and will be very nice when finished.
Negatives: Thought the price was a little high for a hotel under renovation but maybe it is because it is in Ca.
