We liked it was very quiet where we were at. We never received towels we requested. The room was clean but it had a smell. I have to go buy air freshener. I had spray but that wasnt working. The view was beautiful. Overall we enjoyed ourselves.

Pros- location. Property right on the beach. The staff was helpful and friendly. Check in and out was smooth. Con- location is old and needs some updating. The sink in our room did not function properly and a ceiling tile was ajar. The bedding was discolored and there was a large bag of chips left in one of the drawers. The walls are very thin and could hear outside of the room. We only stayed one night and booked last minute. I’m indifferent whether I’d stay again or not. I think with some major updates, this location would be a perfect location for families!!!

The actual property and location is absolutely beautiful. The cleanliness of the room was horrible. There was hair on the pillow cases and in the shower, very noticeable. The room looked like it had not been cleaned in a very long time. My toilet did not, had to request a total of three times for it to be fixed properly.

I was disappointed that the room charge by Expedia, which included all taxes and fees, was not the full cost. When we asked to stay an additional two days at the same rate, the hotel actually charged us double the rate we paid on the first day.
