Pros (+) Great location on Short Sands Beach. Friendly, helpful staff. The room was basic but had everything I needed to make my visit comfortable. I felt safe . There was plenty of well lit parking. The hotel was close enough to the water that it was possible to see the sunrise over the ocean from my room- beautiful!
Cons (-) The only negative thing about this hotel is the nearest parking spots to the rooms are all spots that required expertise in parallel parking. However, later in my stay I discovered the hotel has additional spots in the back of the building that are easier to get into.
