I arrived at 8:15 in the evening only to find that the property was locked and dark. Inquiring the next day at local businesses I found that it was closed permanently.
The room was the pits. No air conditioning, no windows, could see through the floor boards, cramped with no table or reading light. The bathroom was way down at the other of the floor and the shower had no running water. I didn’t bother staying and left.
A good location, as it was opposite beach. But also a bot noisy as on the main street.
There was no AC and a portable fan…which was not enough to provide comfort.
The shared bathroom was always clean and tidy.
The breakfast was nice.
The lock on balcony did not work. The polyster bed sheet was a disappointing as was the lack of hanging and storage space.
Attended a friends wedding and I didn't want to drive home.
Needed a dog friendly hotel.
This is the best in town!
Comfy bed, great location and dog loves the balcony and dog watching lol
Awesome breakfast included. (Which they completely accommodated my egg allergy subbing them out for fruit, no problem).

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The property is listed as hotel but it is a HOSTEL
Made a reservation through Expedia. Once I got to the property they didn’t have anyone to check me in. So the bar manager told me (in a condescending tone) that there were no rooms available. When I told him that I had a reservation her looked surprised as if he didn’t know what was going on. When I was finally checked in I was given an option of an ocean view room with no AC or a room with AC but with a view to the restrooms. With the heat of course I took the AC option. The room had one towels, upon use it gave out a weird smell as if it hadn’t been washed properly. The bedding had a huge stain in the middle. So I had to sleep at the foot of the bed across.
Conclusion: for the prince you may want to try other properties around the area, even if you have to walk a few blocks to the beach. I’m definitely NEVER staying here again. Oh, one more thing, I ordered a strawberry/banana smoothie while I waited for check in and it tasted as if the fruits they used were going bad. I had to throw it away. Five bucks wasted there.

The food and drinks were great, no complaints. But the bed was as hard as a rock, like sleeping on concrete. The staff almost seemed annoyed to have a guest stay there.
The view is amazing and that's it! The room was really dirty, had dust on the headboard and everywhere else in the room. The showers in the washroom don't have a showerhead. There is NO AC in the room, only a dirty fan. Probably hasn't been cleaned in years. At breakfast which was included, the staff said they didn't have avocado when I could see they had served avocado to other guests. He said they ran out and when I kept asking when will you get it, it just magically appeared.
