They did a great job for being short staffed! The general manager was amazing. Although we didn't get checked in on time (by 4 pm) because the room was not clean, she gave us a free breakfast. It was a great trip and a nice stay! I would definitely come back to stay again!

We arrived at our hotel and check in was great. The hotel is older and a bit rundown. We were given our keys, parking pass, and pool wristbands(we were told these had to be worn the entire stay), and I had to ask for our breakfast tickets. We went up to our room and were overwhelmed by the smell of cleaning products. Again, an ok room but older. Our patio door didn’t lock and a small reading light wouldn’t turn off the entire three days. We let the front desk know and they at least fixed the door so it would lock. Our second day we went to the pool. MANY people there without wristbands and a parent dropped off two younger children leaving them there alone(saw to upper management people nothing said) There is NO security to keep people from wandering in at any entrance or from the beach(not one exterior lock anywhere). They were fixing a gazebo and propped plywood against the side when a wind knocked the plywood over nearly hitting my daughter and grandson. We ate breakfast both mornings in the restaurant which was great. The waitress was amazing and food delicious. It was a set menu but many choices. Plus coffee, tea, and juices available. There was only one elevator working and two luggage carts which made things difficult. It rained one afternoon pretty hard and the lobby started to leak. Again, older and they seem to be trying but still far away to make this a nice place. There was lots of construction piles in both the parking lot and grassy area by the beach access.
