For the most part our trip went well, seeing security and or local police often kind of made us feel a little sketchy even about 9:30pm knocking on our door looking for a girl complaining about something only to be told they might have the wrong room, weird also they knew my last name

My experience was great. The room was nice and the TV was very modern loved it. Loved the free breakfast make sure you wake up for that. the beach is so close and I recommend going through the entrance through the sanctuary for a great spot. Super close to Walmart and other places for food. Yes there is a micro wave and fridge inside.

We had noise from running up and down on the second level well into am. Floors dirty/gritty. Laundry not working. Understaffed at breakfast and was crowded. Cooked food was not good. Overpriced for the accommodations... outdated building.

Would not return!

Canceled my booking once I seen my room! I didn’t end up staying! The area was sketchy looking! When I got to my room it was dirty! My “non smoking” room smelled like an ash tray. With my little one with me I wanted to leave immediately! The pictures are of screenshots of the video that I took quickly before I left!

Nice hotel, liked that the beach is just 2 mins away, also loved that they had fire pits on the property it was nice to sit out there at night and enjoy that. Breakfast was good had alot to choose from. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Only reason I didnt give it a 5 star is because the first room we went to when checking in was not ready/cleaned so we had to go back and get another room also microwave didnt heat. Other than that I would stay here again.
