Great view for a cheap price.

It was a decent stay. Cheap price and cheap hotel. But beds were comfortable, no bugs and the AC was cold. During the week was good as we mostly had it and the beach to ourselves, but come the weekend, it was packed with lots of beer everywhere, loud music, and marijuana smell everywhere. We ended up checking out a day early. Would rent again however for the price, but it will be during the week only.

Great 4 day weekend

Everything at hotel was kept very clean from room, hallways and elevator. The only complaint would be only 1 small elevator on the hotel room side of the resort.

The pictures they show vs the actual rooms are quite different. It is VERY old. Extension cord for extra plugs was plugged into the wall laying on the floor by the fridge. Elevator seems to be on its last leg and the property is very old. You can see out the door to the outside. Pretty view, old hotel.
