I like the fact that it was right in front of the beach I like the fact that I was able to just walk out and walk on the beach and the pier and go fishing. I did not like that the roaches were all over the stove and oven were dirty the microwave was dirty there was trash under the bed trash behind the TV the doors don't close properly that like they should it wasn't clean and staff had an attitude when it was brought to their attention.

I love the fact that it was right on the beach, it had a big refrigerator, stove was filthy oven was worst. I love that it had a balcony but I didn't like was that it was infested in roaches we got moved 4 or five times because rooms were dirty they were not clean they had trash from the last person that was there we left early to play softball when we came back someone had came into the room and left our door open. the doors don't shut correctly three times our door to the room was left open and then once the porch the balcony door was open and we made sure that the doors were closed we complained they said they were going to look on the cameras and they never got back to us with that. their attitude was not bad except the older white lady she was very nice. to park we had to park on other property on either side of the hotel because the property doesn't have enough parking for that hotel guests. Our room didn't get cleaned at all we had to go downstairs and get towels, we had to take out our trash out the room because they didn't take out the trash and we stayed for 5 days. It would be a great property of maintenance would actually do their job and staff would clean rooms better and most of all get rid of the roaches.

It a great location and all the rooms have private balconys. It's right on the beach so a very little walk out to the water. Love the small kitchenette. Perfect little place and cost friendly. In fact I've stayed twice and I'm already booked for the end of October. So excited to be going back.

Not your best choice
There were many outdated items in the hotel, the door to the bathroom was broke, there were cigarette burn stains on the sink, the stove didnt work, the phone cable from phone to wall was not tbere and they didnt fix it till our last day there. They never brought us new towels, the carpet and just overall condition of the room was trash. The pool was nasty, the wash stations were broke where you wash sand off your body and beach stuff. There was one nice lady at the front desk, the other two workers acted like they could care less if we got what we needed or not. Seemed to be a party hotel. People slamming doors and yelling all night. The doors had about a 1inch gap all the way around in our room so one side of the room staid hot due to hot air blowing in. Over all very disappointing for what we paid to stay there for 5 nights. They should be paying people to stay there untill everything is brought up to date, and worth staying at.
