Couldn’t ask for a better location. We didn’t rent a car and never needed one for our trip. The staff and service was great . A couple things in our room weren’t functional the blinds which I had to spend much time trying to tie up to let in light to see the ocean view.and flushingThe toilet was not working. Had to take off tank lid and flush manually flapper was fused shut .

Not so clean

The hotel is a bit run down. Our sheets had stains and it just didn’t feel very clean. Also it was fairly loud. For the price I would expect a cleaner better experience.

The overall experience was great. However the pool needed to be cleaned. The amenities could have been improved. For example, only some of the rooms have refrigerators, but they don’t tell you that when booking a room.

Gross / dirty - yuck!

Location was great - however it was a dirty nasty gross room ! We have already had this taken care of but it was a very big disappointment The rooms are so outdated and dirty , bed is on a piece of plywood - It’s not a suite - didn’t even have a fridge in the room , I would not spend this amount of money on these rooms ever again!

valets were very good. service was decent. but the condition of the rooms was awful. no window coverings - even in bathroom. Ancient, dirty furniture. keycard worked half the time. front desk said it was an old system and not to put phone near card. my 'suite' looked nothing like the picture. 60 bucks a day to park. almost $1200 for 2 night stay (room only) - more than Hard Rock in NYC! Great location though and like i said, valet guys were really nice and helpful. but management really needs to do some MAJOR room upgrades cuz it was awful.
