We went ahead and completed our 1-night stay at this hotel.

We weren't there long and didn't explore the whole place, but we had no issues with our stay. We had a ground-floor room in the main building. Everything was in working order, the room was clean, etc.

We had dinner at the hotel restaurant. It was adequate for a late-night meal, although pretty unremarkable food.

We liked the fact that they had an outdoor pool that was well-heated, even for a chilly February night, plus a large whirlpool.

All of the common areas that we saw appeared clean and well-groomed.

As others have noted, this hotel is not near any beach, but it's a short Lyft/Uber to the seafront. There's a Hertz office in the hotel as well.

I'd say it met expectations for a Category 3 stay without any meaningful status.
