The kitchenette that's available was nice with a small dining table and the size of the rooms was nice also. It was only feet from the beach.
The beds and pillows were painfully hard and uncomfortable. I found a roach in my fridge, and the fridge also seemed to be dying because it wouldn't cool correctly anymore. There were no hangers or storage drawers. The paint was chiped and peeling. It didn't seem very well maintained for such a prime spot on the beach to stay.

Location right on the beach.
Outdated…. Pictures and description of rooms are deceiving. Air conditioner dripping water everywhere. Holes on the ceiling. Paid $143 a night and expected a little more. Felt unsafe and unable to sleep.

Employees were friendly
Got locked out our room for 4 hours
Asked to get working hotel keys four times before finally two employees came three times with metal keys to try to open. Also employee had said that door had been doing that. If it's broken why not fix before getting paying customers from unable to access our paid room.. A hour later the owner came and spent 15 mins in our room drilling and fixing the lock due to battery being dead. Employee asked if we had changed the batteries which is a ridiculous question..so we were locked out and had a stranger in our room at 10 pm very uncomfortable and inconvenient! No accomodations were offered.

1.5 / 5.0
Location can’t be beat. Staff was friendly when I could track them down. Covered parking was nice!
Badly in need of updating. Our bathroom ceiling was falling down. Carpet is old and dirty. Bathroom sink had previous guests’ toothpaste stains and obviously hadn’t been cleaned. There were no toiletries or tissues, no coffee, no breakfast.
The photos in Booking.com are deceiving and must be from at least a decade ago. The pool, while refreshing, was freezing, and in disrepair. Missing tiles all around and sand in the pool. Only 2 pool loungers. My daughter and another woman in the pool received an electrical shock while in the water at one end.

reserving with booking.com. bed was very comfortable.
Towels had obvious stains and bath towel had bits of leaves stuck on it. surfaces of room (night table--especially gross), remote control, long counter for setting luggage were not freshly cleaned/dusted. A big negative for me was that the office and rooms are upstairs--no elevator. The stairs are steep and hard to manage with mild arthritis. This should be mentioned on the website.

1st room we in had a half smoked cigarette on the counter top, a/c wasn’t working at all so they had to switch us rooms, while switching rooms one of the workers stole our laptop and when asked about kept in getting the run around about it. Staff tried to blame the smoke smell on us when the half smoken cigarette was still in counter top of first room.

It was on the beach. Excellent location.
It was a cheap outdated hotel. It was clean, in an excellent location. The bed was comfortable. The ac worked great and the tv worked. I paid a great price for the room. I would stay again.
