    Was warm, hot tub was relaxing, the beach was clean, and everything was within walking distance. Loved it. Only thing we wished we had was a microwave. Past that exceeded expectations. We hope to stay there again in the future❤️

    The staff was friendly . The hotel is close to everything and walking distance to Sheplers ferry. The hotel really needs updating. It feels dirty.

    Our room has a great walkout little patio on the first floor. It was very clean and the a/c worked beautifully! The receptionist checked us in and allowed us to receive Best Western points, even though I booked it through a third party under my name and not my husband's name. That was so very kind of her! Much appreciated! N/A
