The front desk staff was very helpful & nice. However, there was always a long wait b/c it was a one man show. They were checking people in, storing luggage, retrieving luggage, getting beach towels, calling valet,& handling other issues by themselves. The room was dirty (I.e., dust everywhere, floor w/ debris, not swept). The renovations were cheaply done. The bed made noises when you moved & mattress dipped. The hotel was more like a motel; an art deco holiday inn. Location was great, but not worth the rate for the room.
