Daily housekeeping was nice - just had to request service around our schedule. Bartenders were great - Georgia stands out the most, the drinks she created with the pineapple vodka need to be put on the menu. The inconsistencies of the bar openings could have been better but not anything major. I personally found the bar menu "lacking" and a 9pm kitchen closing to be disappointing - but that could be a seasonal thing. The location felt commercial, the walk to the beach or local restaurants, albeit short was past empty lots and loading docks of neighboring hotels. The biggest issue i had was the crews dredging the sewage lines in the area made it hard to walk around or sit outside at the bars due to the smell - no fault on the hotel, just my luck.

Breakfast was awful, and a scam! Food was stale and poor quality, selection quite limited. Unsure why it’s marketed as “European Breakfast”. The woman working the breakfast area was terribly rude! She threw the plate at us when delivering, unacceptable! The beds were very uncomfortable, rooms dusty, volume on tv not working properly. Overall I was very disappointed, I will not recommend to friends or family!
