The facility is a bit tired. But, does anyone really got to PCB for the hotel decor? This was a terrific place to stay! Best night's sleep I've had in awhile on the very comfortable bed. Walk to the beach was easy and convenient. Getting around was convenient. The balcony was fantastic--Gulf was less than a football field from the room.

This hotel has gone down hill over the past couple years. Our room wasn't ready when we arrived and we were asked to wait 20 min, we came back 40 min later and were given attitude asking to please give them another 20 min. Once we got into the room it was clearly not cleaned well as there were beads on the floor in the bathroom and crumbs on the carpet. Not only was it filthy, the carpet was coming off the side of the wall in the bedroom, door stoppers missing, no hand towels. The ONLY thing this hotel has going for it, is the view of the gulf. This was our 3rd stay in 4 years (didn't stay last year due to covid) and I hate to say that we won't be returning unless there are major changes.

We are sorry for the inconvenience and any discomfort from the smoke. There was a kitchen fire in the room above yours caused by a guest leaving something on the stove.

Hotel in disrepair, kitchen area worn/old - couldn't remove iron from holder, toaster was broken, dirty silverware, no edge cleaning in kitchen & bathroom, lock on door to balcony jammed/rusted?Would have been nice to have been provided a roll of paper towels to keep areas clean. Bathroom soap dispenser leaks all over the counter. Disappointed in "breakfast" - orange juice was like Kool-aid, no decaff coffee, reg coffee very weak...

Booked a king room, but when I checked in they said the king wasn't available and would a double queen room be okay. I said yes, only to discover they only have double standard mattresses, no queen rooms at all. When I complained, I was told it has a fold out couch. This is also one of the filthiest places I've ever stayed. Grounds , and the beach in front of the resort are covered n trash.

The toilets kept running and we had to jiggle the handle a lot. Also, the air conditioner kept making a very loud noise during the night.

Everything was nice except upon arrival I had to request a new clean comforter the one on my bed was stained. I also ended up spending money for pots and pans since the condo didn't have any. Our room wasn't cleaned during our stay so I had to buy a broom to clean. Other than that it was a nice experience. Right on the ocean and beach. Pool was nice and clean.

Allie, we will address your feedback on the comforter and pans with our management. Due to COVID-19, housekeeping only enters rooms when service is requested to limit human contact. We apologize if this was not communicated properly at check-in.
