Beautiful beach front however the hotel is in desparate need of cleaning and an upgrade. The pictures advertising the property looked nothing like the actual rooms. The elevators where very sketchy, hot and slow. The room was disgusting, broken dirty cabinets in the kitchenette, the plates, silveware and cups had old food dried on them, dirty toilet, no hand towels or washcloths. The only positive was the beautiful balcony overlooking the Gulf of America!

The room could have been cleaned better upon arrival, meaning the kitchen area (cups/ pots/ utensils/ table) and the floors had some sand.

On our second night there was an issue with the sprinkler system next door which caused water leakage to our room, it damaged our charging cablee and the only thing we got was we will send someone to clean the water. On our fourth night someone hit our car in the parking lot and the only thing management could say was that they were sorry. Definitely not going back.

The rooms had no weather stripping so there was 4 inches underneath the door that led outside. Roaches, black mold, humid room with no relief. All around disgusting stay with a 50 dollar hold PER NIGHT that was not previously stated. People who didn’t stay there were at the pool and using the beach access. Will never stay again.

Was over charged in my deposit, someone who was staying there linger had a smaller deposit than us even though they charged 50 per night. Our room key stopped working halfway through, elevators were sketchy as hell, pipes ended up bursting in parts of the hotel. Room was ok for the price.

The hotel was older so it wasn’t as fancy as the ones around it, but the staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was perfect. Stores and food within walking distance. The view was beautiful. Every room had a personal balcony. The pool was nice. The beach was literally steps away from the pool. And you can’t beat the price

Great room

Bed was comfortable. Room was big and roomy. Loved the view of the beach and gulf from the balcony in our room. Rates were very reasonable. We got there early and they let us check in early which was great! Hotel staff was nice.

Stained sheets, disgustingly dirty shower and toilet, common areas of the hotel littered with trash everywhere, elevators practically falling apart. I had to cancel my stay the same day. This hotel definitely needs some attention.

The Elevators only work when they want to. When we first checked in we went to our room the keys did not work went back down to get it fixed then went to the room it finally worked. While doing all this the elevators still work when they want to we ended up just using the stairs most of our stay and we were on the 5th floor. The second day our room keys were not working again but the staff was great. We stayed for 4 days it was great work out!

The view from this hotel is magnificent but the rooms are old and the place looks filthy. One of the elevators was in terrible condition. We stayed only 1 night after spending the day at St. Andrew beach, then we watched the sunset from the Hotel's beach front and it was beautiful. The place has potential but need a lot of major updates.
