The room was big and the pool was awesome: Very reasonable price....loved it! more on Travelocity.com

The hotel was close to everything...freeway, mall, shops, the beach, etc....the price was the most inexpensive from the others I checked out....the room wasn't too bad itself...it came with an ironing board, extra blanket and pillow, microwave, little refrigerator, and coffee machine and DVD player.... more on CitySearch
