Worst experience ever! Parking lot looks like a junker, water coming out of shower because lack of attention to details such as properly sealing borders, bathroom faucet was dancing like ballerina, room had many broken details in electrical parts and cabinets; TV and cable connections were not properly secured. Total disaster. Hope they wash and clean bed sheets. Personnel not

I didn't feel secure. The door didn't close fully making me worry that someone could open the door at any time. There was noise early in the morning as remodeling work was being done around the building, and I was not informed about this. They should add that notice to the website to be considered before booking.

Clean, staff were amazing! Cleaning crew always working making sure areas are perfect. Yes the property is dated but it’s not $700 a night like other hotels close or on the beach. Beach was 3 minute walk and awesome!

AVOID!!! I suffered so you don't have to!!!
I had to check out and change hotels after one night because the conditions were so run-down and the air conditioning was broken (windows were screwed shut) and I didn't even want to change rooms because I could just tell that it would be something else wrong. I asked for an early checkout the first night but was told by the guy at the front desk he didn't have the authority, come back at 7am. So I did and the guy told me he would refund me for the unused nights. I'm like great thanks and go upstairs to pack. Then I get a call from the guy saying his manager says he'll upgrade me, I say I don't want an upgrade, I just want to get out of this place. Then they tell me I have to check out right then and there—at 7:30am—if I want my money back for the unused nights.

Staff did the best to accommodate an early check in. Elevator is old, slow and uneven to the floor level. The room was clean and neatly organized. The shower was too small and tight. Nice pool but the water is very cold. Walking distance to the beach. Overall a decent stay for the price.

This is the absolute worst place you can ever want to stay. Book far enough in advance so that you can get a decent price at a good hotel. If you stay at this hotel, you probably won’t rest well.
