I reserved a king bed, but they gave me double beds. They wouldn’t change this until the next morning. The curtains had a lot of mold on them. The shampoo and shower containers were completely empty. The room looked nothing like the one in the picture, as these rooms are still being renovated. It was a complete disappointment. I’ve stayed there many times in the past, but this property is not the same anymore. It’s no longer worth the price. The only positive was that the beds were very comfortable.

First off, this is an older hotel that is in need of a renovation so go in with that in mind. With that being said, the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is very nice. What you can't beat about this hotel is the location. The beach access and the little bar on the beach is great! They even had a DJ out in the evenings. We will stay again.

This property was unfit to stay. Our room had standing water, strong mold smell, dilapidated walls and ceiling, and a totally worn out and falling apart chair. They offered a second room that smelled like mildew, had similarly run down walls, floors and furniture. When we asked for a return they said Expedia had to return the money. Then Expedia said since we already checked in they could only reimburse half. The hotel staff told us we had to wait until Monday to call and ask the manager for a refund of the rest of our money. We had to purchase a different hotel entirely due to the uninhabitable state of this hotel. One of my worst experiences with a hotel offered through Expedia.

We stay here once a year. We like the location near all the tourist attractions. We also like the amenities that include beach access and beach bar. The property is older and is in need of upgrades but our room was clean and the staff is very helpful and friendly. We especially want to thank Eddie with maintenance for helping us retrieve a phone we thought we lost in the hot tub area.

I was not happy with the hotel. I will never stay again. The room was so worn down and had mold everywhere. We have stayed here multiple times with no issues. The customer service reps that worked the front counter were not very nice. Also, the mattress in our room was stained and looked really bad. Also, there was water dripping from the restroom ceiling.

Worst hotel!!!

Worst place we’ve ever stayed at. DO NOT STAY HERE!! Very dirty and old peeling furniture. Towels smell like old cooking oil. Listened to fighting all night from the room next door. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Not worth the money. Lack of management. Health Department should pay a visit to them.
