No toilet paper . WiFi didn’t work. No one to answer if you need anything from 10 pm-8am and the huge jet bathtub which is the only good thing about the 300 dollar tiny room was broken. Was offered another night on them and then ignored for two weeks and still being ignored.

The man at the front desk was kind and funny upon checking us in. The door to the room was definitely unsafe in terms of locking. The door also face the pool and the curtains weren’t blackout so any passerby could have glimpsed us in some peculiar positions like getting out of the shower etc. some quick changes could include adding blackout curtains, add a small cheap stand to the bathroom to place toiletries and wash cloths, consider including two bottles of inexpensive water in the rooms. To increase luxury they could add memory foam toppers to the mattress to increase comfort.

The building is a little outdated. Toilet paper holder was broken. There was only one towel when we arrived-- we were expecting 4, as we reserved for a room for 4 occupants. Nevertheless, proximity to the beach was nice. The staff was courteous.

Liked that it was close to the beach and restaurants. The area around the hotel was dirty and our room was clean, TV worked but couldn’t get a good picture, scrambled. Walls are thin and you can hear other people talking and kids playing. Beds are comfortable. We would probably not stay here again.
