The signal was horrible and the worker working that evening stated there was nothing he could do about it and the manager wouldn’t be in until the next afternoon, at which time we would be something in the Atlantic.

You get what you pay for. The only good thing about this property is the fact that it’s a 5 minute walk from the beach. The rooms are in terrible shape, you can hear everything from the hallways to the neighbours room. There is no quiet space…we heard people screaming in the halls at 3am every night… you can hear everything happening outside of the hotel at all hours. Room cleaning only comes every 3 days, floors in the room were falling apart…our safe was broken the day we checked in, was never fixed. We ran out of toilet paper. There is zero counter space in the washroom so there is no area to get ready …. It very much feels like a 2/3 star hotel. Our neighbour blasted their tv all hours of the night and we could not sleep…no telephone in the room to call front desk…. Like I said, only good point is that it’s close to the beach, however, there are MANY other hotels near the water that I’d stay at before this one again.

The only good thing about this place was that it was within walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Everyone was unfriendly, very noisy which I know is expected for the area. However when there is a 1" gap between the door and door frame its going to be louder.
