Jeremy, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was great, we loved our room! So spacious and clean. Our only “complaint” is that the linens weren’t really comfortable. The bed and pillows were, but the blanket was just a slightly thicker sheet, and the towels were all lower quality than we’d expected for the quality of the room and overall cleanliness of the entire building. We loved our stay and will definitely look at this hotel first for next beach trip!

Eloy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Updated clean comfortable hotel with thin walls

Hotel was very recently updated and the staff was super friendly. It was clean and comfortable, although the bed was a bit soft for my liking. Only issue we had was the room next-door blasted Tejano music until 2 AM.
