Overpriced, rundown, outdated, not worth the price
This hotel is extremely outdated and poorly kept. My room was insanely humid and moist, I’ve stayed in plenty of beach properties and never had it this bad. There was a lingering mold-like scent and the walls are paper-thin, I called the front desk to ask for a bowl for my dog for water and they never brought one up. They advertise having parking but did not mention it was valet only at $75/day-ontop of the already insane cost per night for this rundown hotel. I was coming and going quite a bit and had to park on the street which wasn’t easy with all the events happening around the area, beach goers and other hotels. I was so uncomfortable and couldn’t breathe with the moldy-smell and humid, damp room I ended up leaving late on my last night of my reservation and going home early. I probably won’t be staying here again.

Great location and very convenient, Loud all through the night, dirty and old building. Soap dish broke in bathtub as soon as I walked in it. Pool liner was floating and coming off the floor it was dangerous. Not worth the money in my opinion.

Dirty old hotel, soap dish broke off right away in the shower. We didn’t have hot water in our shower. The pool was warm but the lining was coming up and it made it dangerous to walk in. We found out parking was an extra 75$ a day to park onsite. Street parking was tricky but cheaper. Not worth the money will stay somewhere else next time.

We had a deluxe king room with full ocean views and stayed for a week. The views were incredible! Super comfy bed. Three of the lamps had no switches, so we had to control them by unplugging. The a/c worked for a day, then stopped. We overheard folks on the same floor saying the same. The fitness room was well equipped, but the weight bench could be replaced, and there were no towels provided. I would stay again, but after having a thorough conversation with management!
