The room was alright. Promised a view, but you really had to LOOK for the ocean, over the rooftops! Two double beds for 4 people was way too cramped. Why not queen beds? Small refrigerator was way too noisy. Would really like to find a sitting area for relaxing before bedtime. Coffee pot only made one cup at a time. One small shampoo for 4 people. Continental breakfast was very acceptable! Check in time was very late in the day.

It was close to the beach. The room seemed unclean all the time. Worn - and expected better view for price.

The room smelled horribly. There was no coffee pot in the coffee maker. The walls were falling apart all around the bathtub/shower, with bits of the wall piled on the tub just sitting there. Mold in the wall hangings. The wall safe was detached from the wall and semi-balanced on a cylinder. The refrigerator was horribly noisy and we could get NO cold water from the sink or shower. BUT THE STAFF WERE FRIENDLY. :)

They allowed us to change rooms three times because of an odor in the hotel and the bedding. The pool too. The hotel appeared old and run down especially the beds and their was a mildew odor in some of the rooms. I sincerely don't recommend this hotel to anyone unless the other are booked up. The beds are uncomfortable and worn down. Their is a odor in the hotel room and especially in the elevators. The only good thing about the hotel is the staff and the pool is ok. The location is pretty good. The hotel ruined my trip.

The staff was extremely friendly and very accommodating. The room was run down and had a mildew smell to it. Overall this was a decent hotel to stay in. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. However the room was a bit run down and smelled of mildew. The beach across the street had a health warning posted on it, so with my small child I did not feel comfortable swimming there.

We have stayed here before and liked it. Good place to stay. Across from beach, heated pool. Restaurants close by. Didn't really have to drive anywhere.

Location. My hotel room smelled badly. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone nor would I stay there again.

We checked in and were given the wrong room type. The front desk quickly rectified the problem by giving us the correct room type. However, the room was unmade and the safe had fallen off the wall and was laying in the floor. The housekeeping manager was walking by so we talked to her. She called the front desk and we were moved again to another room that had not been made ready. The front desk clerk gave us a credit for our first night's stay. Upon enetering the room we found the toilet running, the battery cover off of the smoke detector with no battery and the sink would not drain. The bathroom looked very dirty but it was just very old. If this place was renovated in 2007 they must have skipped this room. The room was on the fourth floor so there was no flooding from the hurricane last year. During breakfast the lady in charge of keeping things filled and clean did a good job. She was so busy she was constantly in everyone's way. Upon check out we were asked about our stay and ended up receiving another credit for the second night. Please make sure you credit my credit card since the one they did credit belonged to Orbitz.

Proximity to beach. Cleanliness. It is obvious that this hotel, being so close to the beach, has a high occupancy rate with many travelers coming and going, however the wear and tear are evident in the hotel rooms, walkways, elevators, pool (which is too small for the size of hotel) lobby. We chose it because it was so close to the beach, but were disappointed in the quality of the hotel itself.

Room was clean and comfortable. TV remote did not work but I was really only looking for a place to sleep. Made one request of front desk and it was promply taken care off. Staff was friendly. I will stay again.

The hotel was right across the street from the beach. The room was old. The bed was so uncomfortable, I could feel the springs when I slept. The bed actually broke at one point. The hotel says it has made renovations, but I didn't see them. The room smelled so bad and the bed actually broke at one point. It's close to the beach, but that's about all this hotel has going for it.

We arrived early and they were nice enough to still let us check in. We were expecting to wait a while for our room to be cleaned, but the housekeeping staff worked quickly and still managed to give us a spotless room. We were super excited and will definately be visiting this hotel again!

found mold on the comforter.there was no sugar/creamer for the coffee.And the people next door were smoking [...] that we could smell it from our rooms (we rented two rooms). The odor was soo bad that it made some of us nausseaus and bad headaches. Over all our experienced was great! THANK YOU [...]!!

We had a problem with the lock on the door and the head of maintenance was very helpful and friendly. No boosters or highchairs at the breakfast area downstairs for my young daughter. This hotel was very much a 2 star hotel. There was nothing all that special about it but there wasn't that much to complain about either for the price compared to other hotels on the beach.

Good for the price, rooms a little bit smaller than usual. Great location near the beach, decent rooms and ok staff.

For the first time, we were able to have requests granted when we arrived. The beds weren't that comfortable. The beds weren't that comfortable, but the location was great. We weren't far from where we were going the following day.
