The only thing i liked was the proximity to the beach. The pool was supposed to be heated and it was ice cold. The elevator was iffy. It isnt a total dump. It has some good qualities for the price they charge.

I am writing to formally express my dissatisfaction with my recent stay at your hotel, which can only be described as awful, horrible, unbelievable, and disgusting. From the moment I checked in, my experience was marred by non-stop door slamming throughout the night, which made it impossible to get a good night's sleep. Additionally, I was shocked to find cockroaches and other bugs in my room, raising serious concerns about the cleanliness and safety of your establishment. Moreover, I found the hotel management to be quite rude and unhelpful when I raised these issues. It is unacceptable to encounter such a lack of professionalism, especially in a hospitality setting. Furthermore, the hotel does not reflect the standards promised in your advertising, leading to feelings of being misled. Due to these numerous issues, I feel compelled to escalate this matter to the Better Business Bureau (BBB) as I believe your hotel is not only unacceptable but also unsafe for guests.

It is older and in need of updates and repairs but they have been hit several times by storms. The location on the beach; the staff; the 2 pools, and breakfast are all excellent . Cleanliness is average . A bit rough looking but clean bed, pool and breakfast. Free wifi and parking and prompt return of deposits. I would stay again.
