Disappointed

I will say the location was great, right in the beach as expected but it all stops there. This place is old and needs repairs, paint and to be updated. The room was clean and the beds were comfy. The bathroom was clean but cramped and the toilet was built for toddler. The pool was one the reasons I booked this hotel but it was a total disappointment. The pool was not heated, dirty and the had a shop vac filtering the water by the lame fountains. In all this hotel is not worth the money I paid and I would not go back.

Location is wonderful. We were told there would be housekeeping between 10:00-2:00 during our 2 night stay. This did not happen. We were also responsible for taking out the trash. For the price, I was disappointed about both of these things. Room was clean, dated, but absolutely fine. The train was quite noisy, but there is nothing to be done about that. All said, we would stay again, as the location and general accommodations outweighed the cons, as we are fairly easy going. We ate at Joseph’s by the Sea, which was decent. We also ate at Surf 6, which was not worth the cost at all.

I really liked the room and location, beds were clean and comfortable but I don’t think they wash the floors in between renters because I had to wear my flip flops or my feet would get filthy, Some trash was left behind under the sink cabinet as well.
