Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Upon arrival to my room, I found the bed not made, bathroom a mess with towels and rags all used and laying everywhere, spoon on the dresser, sheets had yellow spots on them and the trash was not taken out. The room was not cleaned at all. Then after speaking with the front desk clerk Tim, he ensured us that we would be changing rooms and he allowed me to upgrade to ocean view. The upgrade was very nice of him. The next room I was assigned to was cleaned better, but the sheets had sand in them like they hadn’t been washed or replaced. That’s gross. Then the noises of all the neighbors and smells of marijuana ensured that I didn’t not get a good nights rest. The continental breakfast was good. Overall not a great experience and I probably will not be returning to this establishment.
