The room had a patio overlooking the bay, which was great. The entryway was so narrow that I couldn't wheel the luggage cart into the room. I killed two cockroaches during the evening, but fortunately didn’t see any more afterwards. The bed was comfortable, the toilet was too low, the view was awesome, and the breakfast was delicious.

Reservations not as planned

I reserved a room with Harbor view. The 1st night our room was overlooking parking lot. After advising receptionist what I reserved. They had no rooms available for us and was able to accommodate our 2nd night stay in a room w/harbor view. However, We had to pack up our room and relocate.

Shower overflowed into the room rust everywhere door to the other room was coming apart wood splinters everywhere the good thing was the view from the balcony they over charged for a room the should be charged 80 a night instead of 300 a night it was not worth it only stayed a night because everything was booked up but thank god we found something else way much nicer than this place!

Go elsewhere

Look elsewhere, There are much better places to stay for much cheaper. Cons : There is absolutely no way to justify the $250 deposit they charge for the stay. There are stains and marks everywhere in the room. The patio doors didn't even open, the breakfast was bagels and cereal basically and only offered from 7-9 am which is crazy with most are 9-11. Beach? Oh you mean the spots of sand laid around the property? Ok. If you want to go to Henderson beach, which is a 10 minute drive will take you an hour with traffic, even on weekdays. The only pro is if you are there on a Monday or or Thursday, you can see fireworks from the patio that are from the Boardwalk in June-July. In closing, it's way too expensive and outdated to justify the stay when there are actually resorts for cheaper on the actual beach.

WiFi bad. Room smelled and unclean. Pictures advertised were not the pictures of the actual hotel. I had to depart early due to a family emergency and instead of refunding my fee they recharged me. Incidental rate was 250 and takes a long time to be refunded.
