Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Disgustingly dirty. Stunk of weed, cigarettes and bodily fluids. Black mold growing on the walls. Holes that appeared to have been punched in the walls. The elevator to the 5th floor is extremely unsafe and the doors jammed shut and wouldn’t let us exit for several minutes. Found curly black hair in all the towels. Moldy showers. Hole in bathroom ceiling above the shower. Floors are tripping hazards with inconsistent leveling. Extremely outdated and gross. The halls don’t appear to have ever been cleaned. Honestly the whole place should be burned to the ground.
The property is run down and not being kept up. People were blasting music at the pool. We were only given two towels,no floor towel or hand towels, we had to ask for more. The room was clean, though sparsely furnished- no chair, no pictures on the wall. However, if you're on a budget, the pool and the location are great. If you can afford better, do get better!
Elevator out of order we payed good money to be put on end unit with blocked ocean view on 2 nd floor guests were fighting sceeaming all night management did nothing no house keeping in 3 days wont go back
The smell of pit was horrible, the staff couldn’t get me a working door key and when they finally did the door wouldn’t look. Checked out and found another place
The stay was affordable but the property definitely needs an upgrade. No indoor pool nor jacuzzi. Unfortunately it smelt awful of marijuana outside and lingered into the room but no fault to the hotel. Wouldn’t stay here again.
I couldn't check in until 9 nobofy was at the desk or answering the phones i was attacked by bedbugs

Property could definitely use an upgrade. Elevator kept breaking down and sounded horrible. There was a big step up in the room from the balcony that looked like they just kept piling new flooring on top of others. The pool was nice though and the view was good. The lady at check in was super sweet. Didn’t see any bugs and we had what we needed so can’t complain.
Stayed for my sons birthday. Rooms look completely different in person so watch for that. Only one elevator. Tv didn’t work. window A/C units rattled throughout the night. Had to hold handle until toilet fully flushed. No tub. Not even a damn bible 😂
