The only good thing about this place is its location: it is literally right across from the beach. Other than that, the best way I can describe it is "felt like the most expensive Motel 6 I've ever stayed in." Attached photo is of the "Courtyard view." Yes, that's a ladder leaning against the wall about 2' from our window. And yes, that's the entirety of the "included breakfast," which I would basically consider decorative and not worth touching.

The staffs are accommodating and nice. Cleanliness and organization inside the room is good and outside as well. We are so glad we chose this hotel because it is close and walking distance the shopping stores and others. We surely recommend this hotel to others and planning to come back again.
