Horrible will never go back!

Probably the most horrible hotel I’ve ever stayed it. From fights with parents who attacked the woman who saved her child from drowning, to disrespectful entitled teens beating on the walls, booming the music loud as heck, and the the people upstairs were yelling and their dog barked all the time. I couldn’t relax at all the whole time we were in this hotel.

Property is very old and needs updating. (Crappy beds, small tv, only a couple of plugs, doors stick) We did not have any roaches, but the tub drain was very slow so you would be standing in a couple inches of water by the end of the shower. Beach right there and was great.

The rooms are horribly maintained. The shower faucet handle was loosley hanging off the wall, the shower pan was lifting from the floor with a clear gap full of mold under it, the walls were missing photos with hooks just left there, the furniture was all pulled out from the walls with a single power cord behind it to run the mini fridge caked in dust and grime. The mini fridge was so loud we had to unplug it to sleep. Every switch, knob, surface was coated in dirty fingerprints. The bathroom door would not latch to close. Maintenance staff was painting over mold on the outside of the building. It looks like there is a wall of windows for the room based on outside photos, but 2 of the 3 windows are walled up from the inside of the room. The positive side is staff was friendly, baseboards were oddly the only part of the room dusted and the toilet was clean. Its a cheap spot if you are a kid on spring break, but not reccomended if you are trying to have a romantic getaway.
