Good location, close to the airport; staff was very nice, helpful and guest oriented. Rooms look old; and although they were clean, the initial impression was that they were not. Price was good, reasonable accommodations for the price.

Bads and goods
The staff was wonderful. Very helpful. But the room was small and lack of amenities like microwave, coffee maker, iron, ect. NO HOT WATER and the bathroom was incredibly small, only one person at a time in the bathroom. The hall outside the room could use cleaning. There was big piles of garbage in the small area for laundry. The bed had a hole in the middle. The tv had no cable. I gave 4 stars because every employee was soooo nice and helpful that made me overlook the incomodities. The goods: the food at the cafeteria is excellent, the pool is nice and it is small walking distance to shopping, other restaurants, casinos and ohhhh, the beach. It also have parking and let me mention again the staff, which is probably the reason i would stay there again.

Disappointing
Staff is bare bones and RUDE, the rooms are not like they’re advertised, and the building is held together by mildew. Cannot imagine myself staying here again.

I would not go back. Even for one night stay, you do not get your monye's worth. Floor was dirty with sand all over, toilet did not work properly (kept flushing ALL THE TIME), shower had hair all over, bathroom tiles cracked all over. Would not stay again even if free. They have a paid parking area but found free street parking myself. The area felt safe overall.

WORST PLACE EVER!!!! WON'T RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!!!
This place was awful. I would not recommend it to anyone. There was roaches, bugs and spiders everywhere. The second room that they showed used us even cleaned But housekeeping toad front desk that the rooms were all clean and done. They should have a supervisor or a manager. Check the rooms after housekeeping is done to make sure that they did their job. This place is not good for anyone and even worse if you have children.
