Staff were very nice however the continental breakfast was cold and basically inedible. The grounds were dingy and the amenities in the room I.e. refrigerator very loud which forced me to turn off and electrical outlets worn. Other than its location a complete disappointment

Rooms were nice. The place is so close to the beach and a lot of amazing restaurants near by. The pool area was cool but it was too cold to swim in December. Wish they had a hot tub that would’ve been awesome. The breakfast was average but the people were amazing. Only negative - our toilet flossed the first day we got there. But the staff was quick to come take care of the issue. We will definitely be back.

Staff was very friendly especially the lady who prepared breakfast. Rooms were clean, but I did kill one roach in the bathtub. Never saw anymore in the three days we were there. Linens and towels were very clean and white. Would definitely stay again.
