The door of the room we were given, looks as if it had been broken into and not fixed. The door would not lock the second room. It was dirty. It had roaches crawling over our food. The bathroom still had hair from the last guess.

Actually, the place is good. But now there are repair works along the beach, the tractor roars all day and there is a smell of diesel. It was not possible to relax and enjoy the coast. In addition, every morning in the pool there are many different ducks and even big cockroaches, we cleaned the pool ourselves.

The hotel has gone down hill since the last time I was here about four years ago, now. There's a lot of work that needs to be done like painting, filling holes in walls, and replacing the cabinets. Many of the room doors need to be fitted so they close without slamming. Roaches were in two of the large suites we booked. They have humidifiers in the suites. The moisture in the air from the beach was the cause of us using the bath towels on the floor. Seemed like no matter how much we dried it up there would be pools of water througout the tiled areas of the suite. Everybody slipped and fell at least once so be careful or wear socks. Slippers will have you gliding across the floor. The rates went up but the quality went down. No smoking on the property. Smokers have to go allll the way to the other side of the hotel. The smoking area is basically as far away from hotel as they could get it and still say it's on their property. I would say, you get what you pay for but you get a bit less here. The continental breakfast is as to be expected: cereal, packaged danishes and bagels, Jimmy Dean's packaged sausage, egg, and cheese biscuits, coffee, juice, milk. The suites have kitchens with stoves (4 burners, oven), refrigerator, toaster, microwave, coffee maker and has dishes: pots, skillet, utensils, and cookware (with wine and can opener). The groundskeepers and cleaning staff were all really nice whenever we interacted. They seemed pleasant. The front desk attendant was polite

They have some construction being done in the back, but that was fine. The view was beautiful. The bed was comfortable, and the room was nice and clean. I will be returning again.

We stayed here two nights during the race weekend. I booked it based on price and breakfast. First the location was good, right on the beach and in a decent area. The hotel and room need a lot of work though. The hallways, elevator etc. were not great and made the entire place appear rundown. The room itself was just ok. It seemed clean but was in desperate need of a makeover. The air conditioner was so noisy it actually kept us up or woke us up. The "continental breakfast" was a joke, don't count on it. But if you do, don't be a minute late or the breakfast wench will lock you out and give you attitude. Until the place is updated, I would not recommend staying here.
