Good budget hotel, great location
Freshly painted, quiet very clean, good value hotel right on the beach. Not fancy, but practical for a family on a budget - kitchen with microwave and refrigerator, two double beds, fluffy white towels. Very pleasant staff on the desk and a handy beach bar on the premises.

Lovely, clean room with tile floors and a functional kitchen. There's a balcony with lounge chairs where you can sit and look at the ocean, and the beach is steps away.
