    Great location!!! Nice size room. Beach within walking distance. Breakfast has waffles and other breads. If you are low carb just fast. Coffee fresh. Hallways need to be shampooed. If you are not pet friendly find another hotel because the dogs be barkingggggg. Overall nice hotel but not worth the price I paid😬
