This property previews false advertising. The pictures are nothing like the sites. The elevators were not working. The renovations keeps painting over years of build up old paint. Our toilet wasn’t flushing. It needs a new remodel top to bottom. Definitely not worth the price tag. Would not recommend staying

The room we stayed in was small, dingy and very outdated. The elevator was loud and scary. The staff were okay but the bartender didn't seem to like his job as he never smiled. It didn't have a balcony or a pool. Its in a great location. I probably wouldn't stay again.

Lobby is less than inpressive, dirty carpet and a sticky stsircase. Could use some updates. Rooms are old, grout on shower floor is moldy. Ceiling fan almost fell out the ceiling when turned on. Beds were uncomfortable. Room not adequately stocked with enough towels. You get what you pay for. Would not stay again.

Malfunctioning toilet, sink and elevator. The room was very disappointing, it looks nothing like the pictures. The ocean view rooms does not have a balcony. We also had extra visitors (bugs) in our room. The staff was nice.

Was a great location for going to the beach and all the restaurants on Ocean Drive. The elevator was broken which was inconvenient with heavy luggage but the staff did help considering we were on the third floor. Room was clean and beds comfy. The only real issue I had was the mold in the shower/tub combo, stains on tub, and wall tiles coming off on shower walls. Could fix the gaps around the door. The rest of the room was ok considering it is an old building.
