Jimmy at the front desk at night was very accommodating and helpful. Otherwise, I had to ask for a different room because the first room’s bedding was disgusting. The second room was better, but door had been broken and he had to sweep up wood from in front of it. So, the staff was helpful, but the hotel itself seemed not so great.

Beds weren't comfortable (how hard is it to put on a memory foam topper??), furniture was worn, appliances were old, and the rugs seemed dirty. Only thing that I could say is the room had a great view of the ocean and a balcony.

Will not stay again

Room was ok but definitely not what pictures indicated. We stayed two nights. Asked for towels to be delivered to our room, they were never brought. Front desk was ok, but not overly helpful. Bed was not comfortable. None of the lamps worked. Very outdated. Most likely will not stay here again

The property exceeded my expectations for the price. I was very pleased with the property and my stay. Although the room was a little "dated" everything worked, was clean and well kept. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Would stay there again.

While the location is amazing, the building is left in disrepair. There are two buildings on the property. I stayed across the street from the main office, there was wood over one entire wall of the indoor pool, the hot tub on this side is blocked off with caution tape, and and the rooms on either side of my room were being worked on and gutted.
