The cleanliness of the room was less than stellar. There was sand on the floor from a previous guest and mold on the lampshade. The room was very basic and could use updating. One of the elevators was broken and therefore the other was busy and slow. The room had a great view and location but I'm unsure if I would stay here again. They could use a good bit of improvements. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Nothing for breakfast other than coffee.

Let me start by saying that the staff here are incredibly friendly and very helpful. However the place itself is just awful. To start there was only one working elevator and it sounded like it was about to fall apart. The pool had so much chlorine in it that you could barely tolerate it. The worst part was the beds. If you like thin very hard beds then you would love it. My back never hurt so bad in all my life. The stove didn’t work, you couldn’t sit on the balcony due to the heat that was coming off the air conditioning unit. The couch bed was slightly better than the actual beds but not great either. All in all this place is run down. Needs major work. Staff are great, price is not worth it. I will never stay there again.

Property was in a great location, pool nice , hot tub nice, beach nice. One elevator was broken all week. Wait times for elevator were long. Parking is horrible. If you have 97 rooms, there should be minimum 120 parking places for all guests and staff. First room we had was 514. No smoking but smelled like cronic smoker lived there. Went to living room and noticed outlet for AC was burned and umplugged and plug was also burned and room was not swept. Front desk was very nice and moved us to 614. All good now. We are on the beach and lots of towels are used daily and sand gets in the room. I was informed that housekeeping was every 3 days. We stayed from wed to sun. They came one time and brought towels on Sat. And took out trash. Bed was never made and room was never swept. Keys had to be reprogrammed at least 5 times. We had a good time but house keeping leaves a lot to be desired. Front staff was very nice. Tiki bar drinks were great and bartenders also great.

Very friendly staff when approaching them. Easy access to beach and pool. Small Play area for small kids. Cons—$50 night Fee upon check in. Didn’t state on site that I saw. No laundry, but stated there is laundry on the website. No breakfast. Very dirty room. Trash from previous guest left behind. Mattress had a literally dip in it, woke up with back pain every morning. Whole room smelled funny but strong Cat pee smell by couch. Cushions cover on couch ripped all around the back, foam exposed. Mattress had big yellow stain (probably cat pee) Had to ask for items multiple times before finally receiving. Balcony chair broken, just propped up against the wall. Door very unsafe for toddlers. Unlocks when being opened from inside. Hot tub had broke metal chair, very unsafe with a simple slip. Only one elevator working which itself sounded sketchy. Minimal, minimal parking. Extra across street but crossing that traffic with no cross walk is hit or miss. Couple gave us their lounge chair since they left at noon and supposed to be rented til 5. The told the guy and after they left he tried to tell us we had to pay an additional $40. Even though it’s already been paid for. Huge chair outside for pics but it is broken, which hard to tell until you’re on it for pics. Not worth what I spent. Minimal pots and pans for cooking. Not worth the price. Wouldn’t stay again.

Parking was never available in the lot. Had to park across the street. Construction going on in front of the hotel so it was difficult to get in/out of parking lot. Only one elevator worked the whole 10 days we were there. VERY inconvenient. Housekeeping was shotty. They left new towels but never made our beds or filled the soap dispensers. Overall this is a 2 star resort so I guess you get what you pay for. We just wanted a place to sleep between shopping & being at the beach so it served that purpose.
