It was nice property, not being able to check in until 3:30 on a prepaid room (at 2:30) was a hassle. Going through the minutia of all the conditions of use was a hassle. Got it that it's a spring break property, but the actual conditions should carry some weight.

Property was under construction and we were told we had an ocean view. Our view was the roof of adjoining building with all the AC units and mechanical equipment. We asked to switch rooms and the only other room available was one that TV doesn’t work.

It was a perfectly good hotel. It was a little run down and in need of repair in places. It Catered to a more 'Party' clientele, so it was pretty noisy in the evenings.

Not exactly a “resort”
We stayed here for a nearby convention. While we technically could see the ocean from the room, the view was much more of the roof and air conditioning units. The entrance to the room was more motel style as the walkway and doors to the rooms were outside. The room was clean and comfortable, but definitely nothing fancy.

Check in time was very slow only one person at the front desk. After over 30 minutes of waiting another person came up from the office to help.
