The only highlight of the stay was the oceanfront location, but be ready to bring your own blanket since they only supply a sheet, and watch out for the palm-sized roaches that might surprise you.

The room was bare and the floor was dirty. There were no side lamps and the curtain was not fully covering the window so a bright light was shining inside during the night and there was little privacy. The staff was unfriendly.

Cockroaches the size of my hand in and around our room. There was a half inch of space between the floor to the room and the front door, so the roaches can crawl in and out as they please. The sheets clearly hadn’t been washed or changed before we checked in. Don’t come here.
