I stayed in a Cabana suite and there was music blasting somewhere in the area which went until the wee hours of the morning so it was hard to get sleep. The upstairs unit leaked through a light fixture into my bathroom and I had to ask housekeeping to mop it for me (which was done promptly). Everything was clean and tidy though. There’s a fridge inside too.

I didn’t like that the sheets and the pillows smelled like it hasn’t been changed, it smelled dirty. I don’t like that my credit card was charged twice and my boyfriends card was charged as well for the same amount and when I called the hotel to ask about it, I was transferred and I was placed on hold for over an hr and I still didn’t get helped because I hung up.

Staff was great, we stayed across the street and it was older but still clean. We had a problem with no hot water. I called the desk and they immediately had someone to respond. They moved us to the next room over with no issues. Overall I would say this is a good place to stay if you like an older place to stay. They also had a Gym inside the building so working out is right down the hall if your on the first floor.
