Best Western On The Beach

Best Western On The Beach

10/10 Excellent
"The beds and showerheads are amazing. Rooms were clean and view of the ocean was breathtaking. Staff was friendly enough. Access to the pool and beach was kind of inconvenient as you have no access from the building you have to walk out the front door and walk all the way around the building. Door to the indoor pool and hot tub was locked so we didn't get to use. For the amount I paid, I will probably try another property next time. I don't feel it was a good value."
