Beds are super comfy! Staff was friendly and helpful. Kitchenettes are small, but nice to have to cook breakfast. Did not have enough kitchen wares, so we went and picked up paper plates and plastic ware. No dining table but room to bring a folding card table to eat at. Being right on the water, can see salt water damage, but they are in the process of renovating the pool. The little onsite bar is great! Bartender was a pleasure. Overall, our stay was wonderful, and we are going back in September.

At first I thought wow they upgraded the rooms. NOPE. Paint and new furniture. Bathroom was same and not good at all! Cracks on the shower surround and the room wasn’t the cleanest. Room next to us left due to bug issues but we didn’t see any.

Overall this is one of the worst hotels I've stayed at. The rooftop pool was green and stagnant. The hotel staff did not maintain safe chlorine levels, or even check on the condition. The elevator is horrifically slow. My dresser did not have handles, so we couldnt open the drawers. I saw a roach in the room. The last time I stayed there, they ran out of towels. That time I said "never again". I decided to give it one more shot, and that will definitely be the last time I ever stay there
