Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
highly disappointed in my stay here!! I feel like I'm in a college dorm room or the ghetto with the loud music playing at 2am and people running up and down the hall. My family couldn’t sleep because of it! Tried to call the hotel but of course no answer as it was after hours. Also, there's no phone in the room to even call front desk. You can hear EVERYTHING outside of your door! It’s literally like living on a college campus. Highly DO NOT RECOMMEND!!! And the staff did NOT try to make any accommodations!

Hotel was at a walking distance from Ocean Drive. Used public parking around the corner. Only hiccup was that on two occasions when I needed front desk assistance (including check in) there was only one staff available and we had to wait over 15 minutes for assistance.
