The room was decent, it gets a lower rating because the pool and more importantly the hot tub were out of order. And it appeared to not matter, no one worked The issue.

The pool was disgusting. It was green and had two hair balls the size of basketballs floating around. The hot tub was green and over flowing with foam. The room was also very light in the middle of the night because the room didn't have curtains. It had shutters, but they didn't block out the lights from the lights on the hotel walk way by the rooms.

We enjoyed our one night stay. We had a two room suite with a balcony and that gave us a little view of the ocean (over a parking lot and lots of houses, but hey, I’ll take it!) The beds were fine, room was clean. Nice to have the two rooms and two TVs so our kids could have their own space. After road tripping for a week together, this was welcomed! The kids swam in the pool. The water was quite cloudy with chlorine and my son’s eyes hurt bad after swimming, but it was likely necessary because the pool was packed! My husband said the hot tub was more of a cold tub. In the morning when we were heading out, the ice machine ran out. That was a bummer, but guessing we got there too late and everyone else had filled their coolers, etc. It was a decent place to stay.

This place was well maintained for an older property. The staff was pleasant however, the hotel has low water pressure and during the two nights there, we saw several groups of locals in the hot tub and there were to many kids in the hot tub (6 or 7 kids with a 5 person capacity tub). They were well behaved for the most part but I wanted to relax and kept getting bumped into, I only stay in places with hot tubs cause it’s that important to my experience so I was frustrated but all in all this place was nice, wish they wouldn’t charge a $200 deposit, but the nightly rate was worth the stay! 🙂
