It has Rust , Mold , Roaches , Broken Doors , Stains on bedding and towels and that’s just the half . The staff was amazing ! But the room experience was awful

Not worth it!

The place is incredibly run down and dirty. The elevator felt like it was going to fall apart. Roches were in the trash. Doors were busted and bent. Card reader to open door broke while it was 100 degrees out and the had to call maintenance in to fix it. Other people were also having the same issues. Would never stay there again.

Disgustingly dirty. Stunk of weed, cigarettes and bodily fluids. Black mold growing on the walls. Holes that appeared to have been punched in the walls. The elevator to the 5th floor is extremely unsafe and the doors jammed shut and wouldn’t let us exit for several minutes. Found curly black hair in all the towels. Moldy showers. Hole in bathroom ceiling above the shower. Floors are tripping hazards with inconsistent leveling. Extremely outdated and gross. The halls don’t appear to have ever been cleaned. Honestly the whole place should be burned to the ground.

Outside of its location on the beach, for what you pay, it's not worth the money. Filthy dirty, cockroaches, the room in terrible.condition. I'd give it a solid D, and that because it's on the ocean. Came in at 930, waited with another couple to check in to an empty desk with no clerk. Waited 15 minutes for a girl to show up and scan keys and send us on our way, walked to the room, tried the keys and they didn't work. Walked back down to an empty front desk AGAIN, this time after half an hour a young man showed up to provide a key to get in. I asked where the desk clerk was and he said they don't stay if the hotel is fully booked...this place is a joke and I'll never spend my hard earned money there again.

Theres good and bad.

The hotel was not what we expected. Chipped paint throughout the building, the elevator kept getting stuck, someone urinated in the elevator (visible puddle) and smelled of urine. The hotel did have a good pool and an easy access to the beach. Overall the hotel room was clean and bedding was clean, without any smells. The view from the oceanfront room was amazing.

The property is run down and not being kept up. People were blasting music at the pool. We were only given two towels,no floor towel or hand towels, we had to ask for more. The room was clean, though sparsely furnished- no chair, no pictures on the wall. However, if you're on a budget, the pool and the location are great. If you can afford better, do get better!

They had one working elevator and it was in poor condition. Shaky and noisy. When we arrived we had no towels or washcloths in our room. We had to ask laundry for towel and washcloth and they were extremely unprofessional asking me “you ain’t had none in your room”. Uhm I wouldn’t be asking if I did. The facility is dirty. It’s not a “resort” it is like a motel 6 with a pool. The pool was nice and clean. If you are on a tight budget and just want a place to sleep then this is the place for you. Oh and our room key kept deactivating. We had to go to the reception desk 5 times in 4 days for a new key. The air conditioning is awful as well. I put it as low as it would go and as high as it would go and suffocated the whole time. For over $100 a night they could do better. No one came and cleaned our room once in 4 days. And if you want fresh towels or washcloths you have to carry them down yourself and exchange your old ones for new ones. Do not recommend this hotel. Felt like I was in the ghetto.

This property is poorly maintained and not anything like the pictures shown. The staff is friendly enough but you can tell they are very under supported. Also know the difference between ocean view and ocean front when booking. The first room I was in was scary! You get what you paid for though. The pool is amazing and the beach as well. They were the saving grace!
