Noisy on street level. Walls thin. The kind of clientele that frequent this hotel will stand outside the door or walk by talking loud.
This property smells like marijuana. The staff is friendly and very nice. Especially the cleaning guy with curly hair he made us feel really welcomed. Overall an ok Motel. They charge a resort fee, idk what for cause there’s only a small pool so idk what resort fee there charging for but it’s an ok motel.
ALWAYS READ THE REVIEWS. Such a huge lesson learned. My daughter and I needed a place to stay for 2 nights before going on a cruise. This was the cheapest in the flight/package deal. I was rushed and didn’t read the reviews. However, I made my decisions based on the photos. Biggest. Mistake. EVER! The room was fine, I guess. A little small. The bed was loud and squeaky, a train ran all night long right outside our door that was so loud, it sounded like it was coming through our room. The other guests hogged the pool af it was all theirs, blasting music as if everyone wanted to listen to it. The morning after we woke, I attempted to take a shower. I let it run for 15 minutes. Not one drop of hot water. So..... my daughter and I jump in an Uber and go out to find another hotel assuming we could check out for the last night. I didn’t say anything to management because I didn’t want them in our room messing with anything if they needed to fix the water. We found a place, booked it, came back to check out and I get “oh, sorry, you’re too late. If you had told us by 5:00, you would have gotten a partial refund.” IT WAS 5:15. Give me a break we left for the beach and never looked back. There is nothing in this area to do. The neighborhood is awful, so you can’t walk anywhere. This place is a flat out dump. Do NOT let the pictures fool you. Pay the extra $50 and stay on the beach. We had a wonderful time as soon as we got the heck out of this place!! Stay far away from this one!
We got in early because I called ahead and they said they should have a room ready. They didnt. The girl said itll be 1:30 - 2pm. So we waited by the pool that was full of leaves (bad sign). 2pm came, now theyre telling us 3pm. Another poor management sign. Place has potential but people who run it seem like they don't care. The hotel overall is just dirty. The grounds and the rooms. Dirty room floors! Bed was made (kind of, you had to see it) but the floors were nasty. Forget mopped, not even swept. No channels on tv that anyone ever heard of. No cable news, just a bunch of weird channels, finally found some sitcom from 30 yrs ago after clicking for an hour. No channel guide. Oh, and tv was dead when we first got in, had to call maintenance. Faucet outside the bathroom sent water flying halfway across the room after spitting a mix of air and water fot 20 minutes. One tiny ice machine in the entire place way in the back of the pool. Mind you this is Florida and a 5 story hotel with several hundred rooms. No coffee or anything downstairs in the morning. Restaurant is closed. Walked to Mcd's and paid Starbucks price $5 for 2 coffees. Bottom line is the place is badly mismanaged. Oh but the executive offices next to the check in desk look amazing! 8ft high wood doors and glass, fancy & clean! Some ape even came stumbling out of one to tell me the restaurant was closed when I went in to get a glass to drink while waiting. Bottom line the place is a dump and a ripoff. Avoid it.
The train that went by honking all night was great, it helped hide the traffic noise. The electrical plugs in the room didn’t work, room was dirty. Will never stay here again.
The property is clean and room 337 was an awesome room. Will be asking for that room on my next visit.
Property obvously under renovation. Tv wires running from one room to another so cant close door between rooms in suite. Tv only get 4 religion channels. Door latch got stuck so had to force my way out of room. Major fire hazard. Marijuana smell tbroughout common areas. Bed noisy everytime you slightly move. For the price i paid i am not happy.
Gross. It at all what was advertised in the pictures or description.
