ESJ the staff was very friendly and try to help in any circumstances. It was really safe!! The property needs a lot of updates, the pool was under construction, my husband and I noticed once we checked in. The reason we booked ESJ was to celebrate our honeymoon and enjoy the pool and no pool that was sad. ESJ should advertise there is NO POOL. The room was ok, but it was not clean the kitchen was dirty.The checked in process was horrible, I truly felt bad for the concierge, she was the only one helping like 20 people; my husband and I we waited for almost 2 hours to have the room we booked.I asked for ocean view prior the check in. We received a different room, at the end the concierge accommodated us. Only 2 elevators worked instead of 3.The concierge that checked us in she goes above and beyond. Willy bar tender was very pleasant and very professional.

Its OK to stay if you're on a budget. If you have a little extra spend then book elsewhere. The building is under construction, the hallways are dimmly lit. The lobby is large, bright and open. Our room was beautiful but the sheets appeared to have some staining, as well as one of the towels. If you're a person who tends to be cold make sure you ask for an extra blanket. Parking in the parking garage is tight and there is limited 'guest' spots. It is evident the hotel staff are doing the best they can. As a person in leadership and management, it appears the issues stem from the top down and maybe limited funds to improve the property. THERE IS NO POOL. THE GATE TO THE BEACH IS OPEN 7-7 and it is a long walk around the neighboring properties to get back to the main entrance of the hotel. I would stay again because of its convenience and just bring my own towels/sheets and toiletries.

My room was situated in the 6th floor. There seemed to be an issue with moisture in my room because it smelled terribly like mold and you can feel the humidity in the air inside the room. My friend stayed in the same floor, 2 doors down and her room was also in poor condition. Interior humidity was bad, the room smelled like mold and dog food. The paint was peeling from the walls by the kitchen. Service at the counter was great, staff was helpful and kind. The bed sheets, towels and table were clean. But the conditions of the rooms were terrible.
