Best place to stay before the cruise

Coffee was ready at 6am, the room was clean, and the restroom in the lobby was clean. The front desk was helpful and friendly. I would recommend this place.

Minor issues but overall great

First off, Robert at the front desk is awesome! From the second I walked in, he greeted me with excitement and was consistent with it until I checked out. The room was clean, it had a nice view of the beach. When we pulled out the sofa bed, we did see a dead roach. The water pressure in the shower could definitely be better & the wifi was soooo slow. Other than that, it was great & we would stay here again in the future.

My room was under a renovation project above me. I heard the banging hammering and dropping a packages during the day. I was eventually moved to another room. Secondly, the elevators were frighten. They would Trimble when they reach the floor that I was on that does not make you feel Safe.

The rooms were not very clean, the bath tub had a big glob of caulk on it. The first night we got there the TV didn’t work. The whole hotel smelt muskie. Floors in lobby were filthy. Had to ask to have room cleaned, as much as you have to pay we should not have to ask to have room cleaned. Will not stay here again

First thing we saw when we were going for parking was a sign”park at your own risk. Hotel not responsible” the place already looked unsafe and then that signed made it all worse. Then the smell at the elevator horrible . It smelled like cheap old hotel. The room felt dirty the sheets the whole experience was not good.

Not great

Beds were advertised as queens but they were doubles and they were really bouncy so anytime the other person moved you woke up. Worn, heavily used pillows. The building itself was falling apart and they have clearly put no real effort in upkeep. The tiles in our bathroom were cracked and coming up from the floor. Desk chair was broken and you couldn’t sit upright in it, balcony door was warped and didn’t seal. We thought it was going to be the Holiday Inn at the Pier - which is really nice - but it was more like an old Quality Inn. Real bad shape.

The view was worth the stay

So my experience with this hotel was ok the staff was 100% excellent very kind and friendly no issues at all with that but with the hotel I found it to be old and not so great with appearance, kinda smelled like mold in the building and the walls kinda scared me, I don’t know if it’s because we were near the beach but it made me fell uncomfortable since I have visual sensory issues. Overall I give it 5/10 score.
