Loud dripping noise that proved to be a detached gutter that water was dripping on. Also, the toilet kept running off and on all the time. Also, you were supposed to have coffee 24 hours, we came in at 415 and no coffee. No rest and no coffee is not what I paid for.

It was a lovely weekend. Some of the staff were exemplary. Some of them seemed a little disinterested. Rooms were fine, but some peeling paint. Beds were comfy. We were on the first floor of the ocean front room and could hear substantial noise from children running down the stairs you were stunning and scenery. During meals in the rainbow room was exceptional. Food was good, but not as exceptional as I had expected. Would stay here again just have different expectations.

Of course this is November (off season) so it was VERY quiet, not many stores or restaurants were open, but we knew that. The room could be updated, pretty worn out….bed was very comfortable and the view was to die for !! Best continental breakfast I’ve ever had, Kudos to staff for cleanliness service !
