I thought the location was great and very close to beach. Especially good if you are not with a car. Our room smelled like marijuana and someone walked into our room (another patron) stating that they were given this room.

Checking in was ok but there is a kiosk to use to check in and the person checking you in is in a different country. The room was nice but I am afraid to use a lot of the amenities because there is a charge for most of them. I had booked a king room on the first floor but was given a 2 queen room on the second floor. I would have complained but the room was $20 so no point.

We booked 2 bed and a sofa and was comfortable for 5. the room was spacious. close to many restaurants. Tele check in was easy. Popcorn flavors were awesome. One of the biggest negative, they don't have proper Breakfast. they gave granola bar, apple sauce, cereal. If this were the options I wouldn't have definitely selected this hotel for stay. One of the major thing we look for during vacation is a nice family breakfast. It was totally ruined. They better don't advertise themselves as giving breakfast.

Disliked: Amenities
Beware that when booking through Expedia the room you are given upon arrival is likely to not be what you booked. The property is undergoing renovations and while the beds were quite comfortable, the general feel of the property is a bit chaotic. Doors slamming at odd hours of the night and the lobby is crowded with the various “amenities” they offer. For instance, the massage chair (in lobby beside check-in kiosk) and the sauna (in hallway on first floor) are both child sized. The aforementioned kiosk was the most bizarre and frustrating part of our experience. Despite there being a staff member at the desk, the kiosk is your means of check-in, communicating with someone via video who is not on site or well informed of the availability or type of reservation made. Perhaps with a bit more time, this property will become something enjoyable, but it’s not quite there yet.
