Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Everytime we tried to open the window to enjoy the ocean, cigarette and Marijuana smoke came into our room heavily! At night trying to sleep was impossible with doors slamming, lights flashing, and yelling! The pool was always very crowded, and parking limited! Couldn't take a shower because water was always cold! Among many other things!

Nice rooms, no WiFi
The rooms were very nice, most of the staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a problem with the internet not working the entire time and were told something different by each other person we spoke to: one of the main reasons we stayed here was because they advertised they have good WiFi .

An awesome quiet place to relax
This is my second time staying here. I really enjoy this hotel. The area around it is very quiet and enjoyable. The staff is always friendly and professional. The hotel is directly on the beach and a plus is it has a heated pool for colder month fun.
