It was great. Mostly clean. Bed comfortable. Great to have coffee in the room. But 2 main reasons why it’s 4 instead of 5. #1. We had a late check in. I called before front desk closed as requested. A helpful woman explained the night person would message me a lockbox number and combo. This was early afternoon. When it was 8:45pm (office closes at 9pm) I called to inquire the said info. First the person argued with me saying they sent it via Expedia. I kindly reminder her we booked on Orbitz. She then back pedaled and said I should have it in 5 mins. 10 mins later I called. She told me she sent it. I asked to resend. It finally came in. Please know I have great cell reception where I was calling from. If I hadn’t bugged them we probably would’ve slept in our car. #2 hair pile in the corner of the shower and shower leaked a lot of water when using.

Simple stay option

It was a fine place if you’re looking for a simple stay. Our room was in the lower parking lot so a bit dark and musty but fine. The beds were a little worn and could feel the springs a bit. The pool had a few slimy parts to it and was not as clean as the pictures indicated but it was fine.

My kids loved this place.

I picked this place because of the indoor pool and it was nice. Room was clean and free coffee (in room, as well as at office) Will repeat if the price stays as reasonable as this time.

The pool was disgusting. It was green and had two hair balls the size of basketballs floating around. The hot tub was green and over flowing with foam. The room was also very light in the middle of the night because the room didn't have curtains. It had shutters, but they didn't block out the lights from the lights on the hotel walk way by the rooms.

We enjoyed our one night stay. We had a two room suite with a balcony and that gave us a little view of the ocean (over a parking lot and lots of houses, but hey, I’ll take it!) The beds were fine, room was clean. Nice to have the two rooms and two TVs so our kids could have their own space. After road tripping for a week together, this was welcomed! The kids swam in the pool. The water was quite cloudy with chlorine and my son’s eyes hurt bad after swimming, but it was likely necessary because the pool was packed! My husband said the hot tub was more of a cold tub. In the morning when we were heading out, the ice machine ran out. That was a bummer, but guessing we got there too late and everyone else had filled their coolers, etc. It was a decent place to stay.
