friendly staff great location small room tiny bathroom
The staff was really friendly and helpful when I checked in. The location was great. It was an easy walk to the beach and downtown areas, I loved that!
The room was a bit small. The bathroom was also quite tiny. It was the smallest I have ever seen, though it was clean.
