Broken Crystal Palace.
Room(s) were dirty. Roach(Live) was found in one of the beds. No room cleaning or new towels for 3 days (entire stay). Very Friendly staff but clearly the simple logistics of room readiness was not / is not applied. I reserved 2 rooms for 3 days for my parents and inlaws. My MIL checked out early as a result of the poor room quality. Im sure this is good enough for Summer Beach Tourist who probably dont care for room quality as long as there is a party. But for a local, normal stay its not worth even the discounted price at Hotels.com

Very cute, clean and comfy
The new owners of this place really made some great changes. I haven't stayed here in years and I was pleasantly surprised. The decor is so cute, bright , and colorful. It has a nice little fridge and microwave, a nice flat screen tv, beautiful pool area, and very comfortable beds. Looking forward to a return visit.

We absolutely LOVED our stay! The staff were fantastic! Our room was spacious and comfortable. The ONLY thing that we found only slightly excessive was the pet fee. Non refundable $20 per day booked per pet. But I also understand that some folks don’t clean up after their fur babies, and repeat offenders will ruin it for the rest of us. I would recommend this resort to ANYONE coming to the peninsula!

The price paid for the room is a good value. Generally, the room was fairly clean. The hotel is an older property and like properties on a beach, it has wear and tear from people and the salt air, but a fairly well kept property. There was not always someone at the front desk and you had to ring the bell to get someone there, so patience in that area is advised. Don't get a room by the mechanical room. Loud noises early in the morning that sound like a pump kicking in. The pool area was clean and well kept.
