I would have left zero. Horrible hotel and staff, rooms dirty, staff non existent and dated. No internet, tv, phone, HOT WATER or staff. Raw sewage coming up from shower drain while you take a cold shower. I checked out without staying the evening and they would not refund my money. Travelocity not helpful and the cause of hours of frustration. Never again, stay away!

Old furnitures, bed was ok, lightning was lacking only two bed tables lamps to get light at night. Bathroom was awkward, over size toilet in the middle of the small bathroom, sink so small that you can't fit your hands. Large bedroom small bathroom. Large window that provides a lot of lightning during day. Location was great everything closed by beach right across hotel provides beach chairs and towels. A lot of over price restaurants, but if you look outside beach boulevard you might find cheaper prices.

Hotel was not what was in the pictures on Expedia do not be fooled by this place although it is a good location and staff is pretty friendly. This is probably the worst hotel I have ever stayed at , common areas are very dirty room has mold Old no shower water pressure musky odor and extremely dated. The air conditioning unit is old and barely works. Fan stopped working an hour after we got here and the toilet barely works .Looks like the last update was back in the 80s.. was going to go to another hotel but there were none available. Stayed here one night would not recommend this place to anyone. I know this review sounds a bit extreme, but hopefully it gets someone’s attention and people are not misled by the reviews on Expedia, pretty sure these were not verified or the people that wrote the tens had no standards at all. If you want real reviews on this place, go to Google wish we would’ve went there first they need to clean this place up.

The only pro is its close to the beach otherwise the hotel itself is very outdated. The room was extremely small with very limited space, and the hotel lacked basic amenities. The property felt outdated and not modern at all. Overall, it did not meet expectations for the price or comfort.
