I was looking for a view but got a partial. I have spent 4 nights last November and enjoyed it anyway. Friendly staff and good breakfast. Just cross the street and you have a supermarket and the beach.

We stayed here because the price of parking for a week elsewhere during the cruise was equal to a nights stay here. I just wouldnt stay here again. Mouldy smell in the room, bed cover stained. Advice to the cleaner...sit on the throne so that you can see what the customers see. Pubes on the floor, dip spit on the... More

This was formerly the Best Western Beachfront Inn. The sign still says "Beachfront Inn", so I was a little confused. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are pretty standard, but they do have refrigerators, microwaves and coffee makers. We were there during Spring Break, so the hotel was pretty full. Breakfast was the usual cereal, pastries, waffles,... More
