Worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at I wasn’t there for a couple hours after check in and left as soon we we found roaches everywhere and a toilet paper roll with blood stains from needles and they won’t give you a refund. There a joke. Managers don’t know what there doing. Save your money. This place sucks

DO NOT STAY HERE!! I checked out after the first night's stay. The room was NASTY, dirt on the doors, chairs, floors, the room next to ours had major leaks & the ppl inside got rained on thru the night. Mold on the ceilings. TV in the room but no remote, fridge/freezer didnt work at all including the light. Will NEVER stay here again. It needs to be shut down and renovated.

The room smelled like cat pee. We had to get air fresheners and spray. The floors were dirty. We cleaned the floors with Clorox wipes and they were black. Ramen noodles between night stand and bed in one room. Pudding cup in the other. People smoking marijuana on the balconies. Trash on the balconies and hotel. Not sufficient parking at hotel. You had to park across the road. Other thank that the location was good. Walk right out to beach.

This is a horrible place to stay. There's a lot of sketchy people hanging around late at night. When I checked into my hotel, the ceiling was leaking water in the shower. I did get moved to a different room. The ocean view that they say you have is literally looking out your window. I would never stay here again.

The stay was decent. We loved the location and it being on the beach side. We didn’t care for a carpeted room or made for the room to feel damp. But the staff was very friendly and efficient. Overall it was great for the short stay we had. We would stay here again.
