This place is paradise! The rooms were beautiful and spotless. X, the manager, was the best ever - no kidding! Easy parking. Easy travel by shuttle everywhere. Great help from X for everything. Tasty continental breakfast. Best coffee! Near everything. We would LOVE to come again and wouldnt consider staying anywhere else.

Pros: Frank!
Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location!
Cons: Exterior pool area

The room was clean and had good customer service, but the look of the pool was misleading and dont ask for the room with a view, its not worth paying more for.

Pros: clean
Cons: pool/view

It is important to understand that if you are looking for the Biltmore, this is not it. This hotel is actually a nice but older motel with above average rooms and extras like a gas fireplace and a quick walk across the boulevard to the beach. The one thing that makes the place different is the outstanding attitude of the innkeepers. The only minor criticism I have is that some of the furnishings are a tad old and could use replacing. e.g sun faded art prints and a desk chair that could use a new cushion.

Pros: Customer Service
Cons: Some modernizing would be nice

We selected this hotel because of the positive ratings. It is an older building, nothing to brag about, but the service and attention from the staff was exceptional. They cannot do enough for their guests. Great breakfast. Service is the true measure of greatness! They practice it.

Pros: proximity to beach
Cons: nothing
