Great Overnight
We had a lovely stay overnight at the Dream Inn. Our one complaint was that the coffee was terrible in the rooms. Especially for the price of the rooms they could have better coffee service.

The Dream Inn
The Dream Inn lived up to its name. The Staff was very helpful and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. Every room had a great view of the beach. We were lucky to be staying there when the art exhibit “The Pyramids” was there. Had a great view of that.

Needs Curtains and ear plugs
The room did not have curtains on some of the windows and the lights at night were intrusive as well as the sun rise. Also it was extremely loud- both of the rooms we had were like this. It was miserable for all of our family.
