It was convenient to park your car for the weekend and never have to get back in it until you go to leave. The shops and places to eat and the beach are right there so that is convenient. The reason I give a one star or terrible is because the beds are so bad that you can’t sleep. I ended up sleeping on the couch two nights. The shower is way too small and you bang your head and elbows off the shampoo and soap dispensers.

we liked the location; we were only a 3-minute walk to the beach. Free parking, all the dining & shops were about a 10-min walk. Our favorite restaurant to eat was about a 10-minute walk. The bed in our room was rather difficult for us. (we're seniors). The bed was sitting a bit high & we needed a stool for my wife. The bed was also against the wall on one side, so you were only able to get out of bed on one side. I'm pretty sure there were other rooms that would have been more suitable for someone in our age group. But we Loved the area we were staying. I would recommend staying here.
