Our first room was musty smelling as if it had been under water . But the staff was fantastic and upgraded our room . I know they are dealing with flooding issues . Great job by the staff

The hotel was right on the ocean. It was clean but needs quite a bit of updating

Family of 4 with two young kids arrived at 6 air condition in room was not working. At 9:30 air condition still had not been repaired, Had to ask for another room. Rooms were very outdated, broken and missing blinds, broken tiles, leaking shower. Rooms are only a few feet from the ocean which is pretty cool, but keeping sand out of the room is gonna be impossible.
