All rooms need to be updated and remodeled. Thermostats did not work properly in room 7508. Front desk staff were nice and helpful with check in. We’ve stayed here many times and love the location. This place has so much to offer but certainly needs remodeling, new mattresses and decor.

All staff we encountered are very nice. Rooms are clean but beds are not super comfortable. They are acceptable though. Right on the beach with very easy access and nice outside pool area. Older property but a nice facility. Have stayed here several times and will again. No ice machines but you can buy ice in the lobby. Take your own hand and body wash.

Saloni

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was big and clean, and the front desk people were kind. However, I wish I got a room in the main hotel that had a lobby. My room was across the street, so it was a bit inconvenient having to cross the busy street to get to my room. I also had to go to the main lobby across the street to get water each time, which was tiresome.
