The hotel was good for the price. We just needed to stay for one night before a cruise. The night clerk who checked us in was courteous and helpful. They have some microwave food, ice cream, etc in the lobby. They also have toiletries if you forgot anything, which was great because we forgot toothpaste. What’s hard is the rooms were not nice at all. There were cracks in the walls, face plates and stains on the chairs and bed throw. The sheets were clean, However. Everything is just old and really not upgraded. So, as I said, worth the price. I would even lay a little more if it would help them upgrade/update the place.

Overall our room was clean and serviceable, even though the building was clearly old and needs updating. However, the bed were rock hard and very uncomfortable. Also, there was not hot water for the shower. We will not return due to these two things. The proximity to the beach was great, especially for the price.

The young man at the desk was rude should not customer facing. He clearly did not like serving the public. We got the room key put out things in the room and set out to eat. Came back to room and noticed it was very cold we also noticed the sink area was dirty. We noticed that the door had a huge gap and did meet the door frame light and wind came straight in. We gathered our things and let the office know even should a picture. He really did not care. We checked out and stayed down the street at the Hilton. I am hoping we can receive a refund. We didn’t use the room and it was not in a condition to have slept in
This is the door closed and looked. Walls dirty room not clean

Outside surface of doors and their locks very scruffy and lock not functioning. Bathroom sink partly blocked. Interior very basic but good air conditioning, comfortable beds, good shower and the room clean. Reception desk a little indifferent. Free coffee and mini muffins at front desk for breakfast. No room safe. Room was quiet.
