thank you for the review
The location and beaches were excellent. The beds are a little hard. A snack/store area would be helpful for late night needs.

thank you for the feedback
Old world charm right here in the USA. Some call this hotel dated and worse. We loved our stay! The furnishings are excellent quality, the bed was just right, the towels large, fluffy and new and the shower was excellent albeit in an old tub. The front desk could not have been nicer. The pool attendant has the towels and water cooler with iced bottles of water all included. The two heated pools the largest I have seen at any hotel. If you like old fashioned charm and service go here. We will go again!

thank you for staying
I liked that it was on the beach, the maid service was the only friendly part of that hotel. I did not like the bugs all over my walls bed and food, I did not like how expensive a half bowl of kraft macaroni cost.. total rip off.

I liked how nice the staff was but I expected more for what I paid. Very out dated.
