We love this particular location/venue and have stayed in the past/ and will stay in future. But, the place is old and in disrepair in many respects. The hotel is about to go through some major renovations. Badly needed, including elevators. Other than that, great location. Great view with balcony and full kitchen. Staff great !!

Not bad at all for the price. It’s a good deal and you get what you pay for. We had a great stay. The staff was great! The balcony’s get very gross. Rooms should provide a broom or vacuum. Having only one elevator and having water cut off one day sucked but was fine. Pet friendly was great and accommodating but wish there was better spaces on the property to walk the dog simce they aren’t allowed in the beach. Just over grown parking lot with trash and 2 empty dumpsters.

Disgusting

Our stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, we were told our reservation had been cancelled without any prior notice. After some time, we were finally given a room—but it was in unacceptable condition. The room was filthy. There were stains that appeared to be blood on the door, bed, and wall. Mold was visible on the side of the bed and on the ceiling. When we reported this to the front desk, they sent the lead housekeeper to clean the room. She insisted the stains were “just rust,” but the door was wooden—rust isn’t even possible on wood. The floor was also grimy and clearly hadn’t been cleaned properly. To make matters worse, they failed to disclose an additional $200 security deposit at the time of booking. We only found out about it during check-in. While the hotel advertises itself as “dog-friendly,” that wasn’t our experience. There was no designated area for dogs to relieve themselves, and the surrounding grounds were covered in broken glass and trash. It was unsafe to walk our dog anywhere nearby. Even worse, the beach directly behind the hotel does not allow dogs, and you can be fined if you’re caught with one there. The room was uncomfortable, the conditions were unsanitary, and the staff was unhelpful. Despite the poor experience, they refused to offer any discount or compensation. We would have left for another hotel, but traveling with our dog made that difficult. I can usually overlook minor inconveniences, but this stay was not ok.

Will NEVER stay here again. The payment situation was an absolute mess, especially if you book through a 3rd party like Expedia. Be sure to check your bank account because it charged my card the full amount our 2nd day there but only stayed pending the whole time… and then got taken out a week later after it was already taken out before hand…There is a security deposit that is not mentioned FYI that is $50 PER NIGHT that is not part of the itinerary. They never bring you clean towels/ wash cloths, you have to go down to the desk to get them. The elevator was very slow and one of them wasn’t even working so it was easier just to take the stairs (mind you- we were on the 6th FLOOR!)

Provide kitchen sponges for washing dishes and cleaning countertops. Never given washcloths. Older property. Pool was nice, beach was perfect. It wasn't terrible, but it wasn't fantastic. I didn't feel unsafe. Beds are hard, pillows were good. A little more cleaning could have been done in the room, mirror was filthy. We were on the 5th floor.
