Property Not As Pictured
First, hotel pictured on Hotels.com site is not the hotel or room you get. The main hotel rooms are very nice. They also have adjacent property which is where we were placed. Our tiny room had an exit that was very steep and certainly not to code. There was no chair in room and only one chair in front of unit. Unit comes with refrigerator and microwave. The location is very nice and you can cross street and be on the beach. The staff is very helpful and got us a coffee pot that worked. I was meeting family and thought we would be together but we were not even in same building.

They advertise a pool but it was closed and needed to drive to another location. There was a group of people in there 20's playing very loud music on the 2nd floor after 10 p.m. The bass was thumping through the walls. The rooms were nice but there was a bench, bed and chair. No cups in the bathrooms. Bare bones. It was clean and new looking so that was a plus

Overall the accommodations were average. This place thrives on its convenient beach access. The amenities in the room were fair, with a tiny television, refrigerator, and little microwave. The balcony on our third floor room was a nice feature, with plastic cast chairs and a small table, but the view to the beach requires you to lean over the rail, as all the balconies are on the flanks of the building. The pool was green from an algae issue and closed the whole time we were there. There was an ice machine on the second floor that was out of service. If you are looking for something for a couple nights with across the street beach access, this place was great. If you like to enjoy your accommodations and spend time in your room, you can do much better. Overall, we spent a lot of time at the beach and enjoying the surrounding area, so we had a great time. If we were spending more than 2-3 nights we would look elsewhere.

No pool, no ice, no towels
We encountered we're really helpful but we had to ask for towels and we're never offered a cleaning service during our week-long stay. We had a hard time finding people in the office to get towels from and when we asked the staff it appeared they weren't allowed to just give them to us. It was very disheartening to find out that the pool was not in operation because that is one of the reasons we've chosen to stay at this hotel. The ice machine was constantly broken and the answer was always that the other hotel has a pool and the other hotel has ice. We may give them another shot next year but I'll definitely be checking around

I cannot believe what they charge for this inn. We spent 800.00 for two nights (there was a minimum). The first thing that greeted us was a green pool, unsafe/closes for swimming. Secondly, once we made it to our room, the door had clearly been kicked in prior and was broken making us feel unsafe. We notified the staff of the door issue and nothing was done to address it. At first glance in the room it seemed fine, but 10 minutes we realized our floor was covered in what we think was spray on sunscreen? Aka not cleaned between guests. The bathroom floor/shower were also dirty and on the last day we found crumbled up tissues in our bed sheets. Disgusting and overpriced and would never stay here again. Only good thing about this place is its location and probably the one reason why it’s still in service.
