"Based on the Google reviews, I wouldn't have given this place a 2nd thought along with the look of the location."
"I liked the fact that I could have my dog with me and the staff went out of their way to bring me a dog bowl when they didn't have too."
"Also super helpful that 7-11 was right across the street!!"

“This is a no-frills place, near beaches and restaurants, with friendly staff, but don't expect modern amenities. While the location is convenient, be aware that street noise can be an issue, especially on weekends; the building could use some upkeep. If you need a simple base for exploring, this could work.”
