The cleaning staff are excellent at cleaning. the building needs more maintenance. the gym could provide hand sanitizer, alcohol or wet wipes. Access to the beach is definitely a major factor. the swimming pool is excellent. lack of lawn chairs though.

The hotel is in a gated space with another hotel and casino. Dining choices are limited unless you drive out. The pool is great. The beach is very calm and very shallow - great for little kids, but not suitable for swimming.

I cant consider its a resort standard. The room is very outdated that I was hesitate to walk with barefoot in the room. The pool and other amenities are from Embassy suites and hotel guest was able to use. I will definitely not want to come back this hotel again
