Pictures of the rooms are fake The tv did not work The room was not cleaned at any point during our 5 nights there The toilet overflowed, asked for a plunger no one spoke English and could figure out what we needed, then they told us we cannot put toilet paper in the toilet… The parking situation is a joke But I guess that’s what you get for $80 a night

This place was fantastic! It's a small hotel but I feel that all the appliances were pretty new. Love bathroom design. Pretty affordable to be 3 minutes away from the beach.

Nice staff and the room was clean and plenty of space. Cold AC and host shower. No bath tub. I liked the room and the location but the people upstairs were very loud. Parking is included but limited and very tight. If you have a nice car it may make you uncomfortable. For the price I was happy overall. The location is hard to beat. That said… For any more than $140 I’d try to find something a little nicer.

There is a bug issue at the property …had a roach crawl on my ear while I was laying in bed also lots of small ants in the bathroom. There is also construction going on right across the street which made it very noisy. They did cover my car with a tarp to make sure it didn’t get dusty which was good. The staff mostly unfriendly, although the woman who checked me in was nice. No iron or ironing board, very old TV but there was a mini fridge. Would not stay here again.

Spent two nights at the drift and had a wonderful sleep. The patio was relaxing where you can smoke and enjoy the coffee!! Not many amenities and parking was slim I suggest taking a Circuit to explore surrounding areas because if you stay here and leave for any reason good luck parking.

The hotel is located near a popular point of interest, very close to the beach, restaurants, souvenir shops, and bars. However, since the hotel is very close to the bar, it might keep you up all night.

The place was overall dirty. They gave us towels with stains all over them. When we first checked in they gave us a dirty room the bed was unmade, trash everywhere, the bathroom was dirty so we had to go to the front desk again to get a new room. The next day they knocked at our door saying if we were checking out when our reservation was for a longer stay. Nothing seemed to go the right way
