The first hour of being there I would have rated a 1, but this place grew on me. First was cash deposit only, and I had to use the atm inside office. The fee was 6 dollars to pull cash from atm. I was on 3rd floor above office. Elevator is on the opposite end. I used the stairs for my whole stay. First impression of the 2 bedroom I stayed in- was kinda of musty. The view was amazing. 1st bedroom looking over pool and ocean. Just open your blinds and wake up to ocean waves. 2nd bedroom had large windows and can see over the main road and view of ocean. The 2nd bedroom had 2 beds and amazing views of everything. Everything was clean and had many towels. At first with the smell was like oh what did I book, but I ended up loving the room. I was close to pool and walking to beach was a breeze. The staff was nice and easy to talk to. Parking lot is small and only can park on the right side of parking lot. 1 snack machine was on my side which takes card or cash, but the coke machine below only takes cash. I believe I had the best room on 3rd floor right above office. I would definitely book here again just for that room!

This hotel should shut down immediately. The grounds are disgusting. Smell of weed and cigarettes are everywhere. I passed someone pooping down the hall on the way to my room. Human feces everywhere. Cigarette butts all by the pool deck. Dogs barking everywhere. Carpet in room so gross couldn't walk without shoes. Bathroom so gross kids wouldn't even shower. Awful. Shut this place down.

This property was really bad. It had mold in the room. Really old hotel. No microwave to warm up food. Roaches alot!! Water leaking from the ceiling light in the bathroom. This person that owns this hotel is a slum lord!! Then I was sent to Ocean plaza also owned by them. I looked at one room and got trapped in there. Their phone did not work. House keeping had to get the door handle off to set me free. These 2 properties have been reported to the board of health and better business bureau. Stay away from hotels!!
