The hotel is a long hot walk up and down a hill to the main road where you can get public transportation. It's on the beach and is fairly quiet because there is not much around other than other hotels and condos. The hotel is old and the room we stayed in was decorated in a 1970s style. The king bed was more like a queen bed and if you like a firm bed you will like it. The dampness in the room made the drawers and doors stick. There is no elevator, so be prepared to take your suitcase up 2 or 3 floors. There were ants in the electric pot that heated water for coffee or tea. The advertised cable tv only had a few channels. Only 1 key per room was given out. On the positive side, the view from the room was very nice and the staff were friendly and helpful. LaPlywood nearby is a great place for a delicious inexpensive meal.
