I expected hotel to be nicer..rooms are not what the pictures show. It’s older and no iron or blow dryer in rooms, towels were old, no wash towels.Toilet was clogged when we got there already but was fixed quickly. FYI ..The shower has no door/privacy. No comforters only a flat sheet to cover yourself. The only thing that I like was cold ac, the rooftop pool, bartenders were nice and that is close to 5ta ave but I wouldn’t stay there again. Oh and the parking garage is horrible not enough space to move your vehicle around to be able to park.

Decent hotel, bit run down. Big minus for only having 3 working sun chairs by the pool, there were 5 when we arrived, I broke on by sitting on it and another guest broke another. They were super old and worn out on the mesh part. The last 3 days of our trip they only had sun 3 beds with umbrellas, which went super fast. a staff member said the owner knew and planned to buy more, but didn’t during our 5 day stay. Not at all what the pretty pictures show on Expedia and their rooftop show. We had to spend additional money going to the beach to rent sun chairs. Staff was friendly and it’s a great location. Just really worn down and the owner not seeming to care. 3 sun chairs for a 70 person hotel, quite disappointed
