No office or emergency help late at night
They say there is a night time emergency number but when I called it (could not get the gate open late at night), there was no answer. They never got back to me. I told the college kid at the front desk the next day and I got a half-hearted apology. Will never stay here again.

Great location
Great location, but felt old and not as nice as expected. People were nice, but parking was terrible which is to be expected at the beach. A lot to do around the area with great food and breakfast below.

Beautiful area easy access to the beach and other tourist spots like food and trinket shops. Only thing is the parking, hardly any have to get in at the right time or park up the road abit and walk down.

The location was perfect...So convenient. Everything you could want was literally downstairs and/or across the street. We would have preferred a bigger bed, but we made it work. Overall, we loved it & would definitely come back. The staff was super nice and made everything very easy for us.

Wonderful location and price with 'ok' service
I have stayed here before and loved it. This trip the move to the 3rd floor no stair access promised never took place so with a bad knee I struggled with stairs. NONE of the messages I sent were answered. The cleaning lady who has been there for 30+ years was the most helpful. The hotel is really super convenient and I still love it. However, service has definitely gone downhill.

Good place, excellent location and views.
This hotel is across the street from the beach and the shared balconies on each floor overlook the pier and ocean. The shaded balconies have a large outdoor lounger set and several tables so you can drink your morning coffee or do some work while taking in the sights and sounds. The rooms are comfortable with a nice bathroom, TV, mini split air conditioner, and refrigerator. The rooms are small but just big enough to not feel too cramped. There’s a large closet and the bathroom had a nice sized shower. It was weird that the shampoo and body wash were just laying on the floor as there is no shelf or ledge to place anything. We arrived 1.5 hours early and they wanted $50 for early check in before 3pm. I could see if we were trying to check in before 12 noon but not an hour earlier when the room was actually ready. There is parking in a garage that was convenient. Would stay again because of location and adequacy.

Love how walkable this hotel is to the pier. Plus it’s upstairs a good bar/restaurant (Pierside).
