"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay and would absolutely stay here again! The room was very clean, the shower was huge, and the bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable. We slept great! The staff was courteous, friendly, and got us checked in quickly. The location is fantastic, especially being right by the beach. There is a train that runs nearby, but honestly, we didn't hear it at all during our stay. And the breakfast was amazing! It was a full buffet with plenty of options to choose from, not just your typical grab a muffin and go hotel breakfast. By the time you factor in what you'd spend taking the family out for breakfast, paying a little extra to stay here practically pays for itself. Clean room, comfortable beds, great location, friendly staff, and a fantastic breakfast. All around a great stay and definitely 5 stars from us! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
