GROSS feeling!

The minute you walk into the lobby the smell hits you! Pictures in this case do not speak for them selves. Decor is not bad, but the quality is unsatisfactory. Elevators need a tune up! I felt gross having to sleep in the bed. I though hotel was ON THE BEACH. Not the building we stayed in. WOuld not recommend. very disappointed.

Be careful

Photos show hotel "on the beach" but they have the other hotel across the street & ended up there. After inspecting the 1st room with a headboard torn off the wall, dirty, balcony door welded shut, we were given an Executive Suite. No bathtub drain stop & water did not drain - up past your ankles. Food under the bed, no refill coffee cups the 2nd day, didn't look like the mopped the bathroom floor very much. The ONLY thing is they have great beds & comforters.

not so great

awesome location but poor quality hotel.

Careful: mold/mildew alert!

This is an old building with old fixtures that should have been replaced many years ago. The tub/shower was chocked full of mold/mildew and a simple cleaning would never fix the problem.

Horrible

Entire hotel smelled of mildew had to leave the room and transfer to a new one. We weren't the only totally unsatisfied guests. Others were complaining about the same things.

Service needs improvement

I paid for a beachside room and was originally put in a room facing the road and parking lot with a non working TV and phone. I was moved to a beachside room the next day but was first sent to a room where someone was already staying and walked in on someone sleeping. Then when I finally got to a room that wasn't occupied but the door had to be opened by maintenance ramming it with their shoulder 3 times. Then the toilet overflowed all over the floor. When I requested a later checkout to accomodate my flight I was told that I would be charged an additional day...Needless to say I will not be staying at this hotel again. On a positive note the waitstaff at both the indoor and outdoor bar/resturant were very friendly.

Needs Improvement

Most of the hotel staff was pretty nice. However, on Sunday, when I requested soap and toilet paper for the poolside bathroom, the clerk at the front desk chewed me out because she said the lady who handled that task was too busy. The request was made around 3PM. At 10PM the bathroom was still empty of soap and toilet paper. Also, the hotel pool and bar is the hot spot for all the drunks in town who want to their kids to swim for free while they get drunk alongside the pool, and tapping their cigarette ashes as they stand smoking in the pool. If you stay here, come on a weekday - the staff was nicer and there were fewer local freeloading drunks. The location on the ocean is great.

DON'T RECOMEND THIS HOTEL

THE PASS KEY TO THE ROOM WOULD NOT WORK MOST OF THE TIME, AND HAD TO WAIT ALL THE TIME FOR SOMEONE TO OPEN THE DOOR. IT TOOK 3 DAYS FOR THE PROBLEM TO BE FIXED, AND THEN IT STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN BEFORE WE LEFT. THE HEAT DIDN'T WORK, THE BATHROOM LIGHT DIDN'T WORK AND TOOK 3 DAYS FOR THEM TO FIX THAT. THEY TRIED TO PUT ME IN A ROOM ACROSS THE STREET AND I HAD TO REALLY GET MAD BEFORE THEY SUDDENLY FOUND A NOTE THAT SAID I WAS ON THE BEACH SIDE, EVEN THOUGH I PAID MORE FOR THE BEACH SIDE IN THE FIRST PLACE. MANY MORE HOTELS IN THE AREA THAT ARE MUCH NICER FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE. IT REALLY MADE A TRIP THAT I HAVE BEEN ON MANY TIMES TO THIS AREA MY WORSE TRIP. PICK ANOTHER HOTEL BESIDES THIS ONE
