We chose this property due to its proximity to my family’s condo. It was clean and decently cared for. Pool area was nice and the breakfast buffet was delicious.

We have stayed here about 5 times. The rooms aren’t 5 star but have always been keep up. Last night we got the room definitely in need of restoration. It was on the back side and really rough. I booked online to confirm we would find room as was a holiday weekend. They said at checkout that the good rooms were full. Recommend looking at room prior to payment if possible.

Expedia definitely needs to be updated with proper photos, this place is old and worn down, our room was nasty, black mold on the walls, ceiling, and in the tile grout, floors felt nasty and sticky and left our feet black after walking barefoot in our room after just being there for the first few minutes! The bedding was paper thin and we asked for more blankets and our request was ignored over and over, never got them. The pool was decent as well as the AC, the only postives I have for it and being across the beach was nice but I did not feel clean staying here!

Es un hotel muuuuy viejo, con poco mantenimiento!!! La puerta de mi habitación era muy complicada de abrir o cerrar. No había ni una silla en el cuarto para poder trabajar con la computadora!!! Los controles remotos del aire acondicionado y de la TV no funcionaban!!! El personal muy amable pero no vuelvo a hospedarme ahí!!!
