Horrible condition of the room. Everything was falling apart. The kitchen was horrible with dead flies. The toaster was missing buttons. The description on Expedia for this hotel are not all true. We had to pay additional for beach chairs. HORRIBLE Place, I wish I can get my money back

It was convenient to Local Shops & Restaurants, it was well Landscaped. The Mgt. could do a better job of keeping coffee in the rooms AND anything purchased in the lobby was too expensive, I paid $5.oo for one beer, and Restroom facilities near the Pool could be better & more convenient than being in the Lobby.

Beds were uncomfortable and the room left something to be desired. Also didn't realize I would be staying across from the part of the hotel that was actually on the beach, I just thought that my view was going to be of across the street. I don't know if I was mislead or if I just misread the description.

El edificio frente a la playa tiene mejores condiciones. Tienen todo lo que necesitas, la playa está solo a unos pasos y la vista de la playa desde la piscina es grandiosa. No podría decir lo mismo de la propiedad cruzando la calle. El edificio no tiene buen mantenimiento, la piscina es oscura, está sucia y las paredes en pésimo mantenimiento. Lamentablemente las personas que estaban en el cuarto del lado comenzaron a discutir, nos tocaron la puerta de forma agresiva por las puertas que conectan el cuarto y no había un guardia de seguridad alrededor. El cuarto estaba muy completo, y tenía todo lo necesario en la cocina. Me podría quedar en este hotel pero en el edificio frente a la playa jamás en el que está cruzando la calle.
