Positive Reviews
positive:
Pets stay free!
Guests traveling with their furry friends will delight in this little clause, as the hotel is pet friendly. Guests are required to book their rooms accordingly, as there are non-pet rooms available, which will have a surcharge placed on it if guests arrive with their pets to stay in those rooms.
positive:
Daily shuttle to beach.
Guests wishing to spend their days at the beach will find great convenience in the free daily shuttle to the beach. Without the worry of having to find parking at a busy beach, or having to hire transport, the days ahead are bound to be just that much less stress free.
positive:
Great breakfast.
The complimentary breakfast served each morning included hot meals, so guests are able to get their fill on more than just cereals, toasts, and juices.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Problematic ice machines.
As any machine has problems, ice machines are more temperamental. Unfortunately due to the nature of having water pumped through it's system, leaks do occur, and the machine may be on the fritz now and then.
negative:
Out of the way parking.
The onsite parking for hotel guests is located round the back of the building, towards the rear of a restaurant, which may feel a little insecure to some guests.
negative:
False advertising on beach travel time.
The hotel's website advertises the beach to be a few minutes away from the hotel, when in fact it is closer to 15 minutes by car. Luckily the hotel has a free shuttle service to assist any guests who thought they could walk to the beach.
