Do not stay here! I'm typically not the type of person who leaves bad reviews but this is a necessity. This hotel was dirty, dingy and reeked of weed. There is only one elevator for 7 floors. Our room didnt have any of the "amenities" listed on the advertisement. The beds were broken and creeked/cracked every time you touched them. While looking for bugs (as I do at every hotel), we found used Q-Tips between the mattress and box spring. The shower didn't work on the first day. The halls are so narrow that you can't pass in them. And the parking lot had the smallest spaces known to mankind. Not to forget the overflowing dumpster that smelled of urine or the multiple drug deals that we witnessed. When we alerted the front desk of the issues, we received an "ok" and that was it. They didn't even ask how our stay was, but looking back, its probably because they knew it was going to be awful. This "resort" is nothing like the pictures or description and should be avoided at all costs!

Eddie was very nice helping with check in. Rooms and hotel in general needs repairs. Dirty floors. Smell of cannabis kept us on a high not chosen by us. Pictures online are misleading. Beach convenience was wonderful but not much else. Housekeepers acted like they didn't speak English when asked questions or highly inconvenienced. Most quests we spoke to had same fellings of hotel. Too bad because could be a wonderful place.

Pleasant, great location

Staff are very friendly. Take hangers if you want to hang your clothes and no coffee pot in the room but they have coffee all day in the lobby. Great location. Rooms were basic but clean. It would be nice if the curtains covered the entire balcony windows. The sun is your alarm clock. Overall pleased. I will stay here again.

The refrigerator didn’t work. The air conditioning unit was taped up. It was really a shanty of a hotel. I am asthmatic and I am 99% sure there is mold all throughout the hotel. The elevator had a foul stench.. the only really decent thing I could say about the place was the door to our room locked, but there was a 1 inch gap of openness out into the hallway. I rolled one of the towels and put it in front of our door so it wasn’t open to the hallway..
