No handicap parking. Elevators did not work. (Husband is a handicap Vet). Around 10 pm, there was a very strong smell like air conditioner was burning. Called the front desk, no answer, left message, waited till 12 am, and then walked down. Desk clerk said, "I am only a night auditor, I will let manager know in morning". Really??? I could not sleep, got a headache from the odor. Tried to open the patio door, only to smell cigarette smoke from the bar. Bathroom sink & shower water would not go down. Pool closed. The next morning, I walked down to office (girl was friendly, I asked for manager) He was rude. Acted like I was making this stuff up. Said he got the elevator fixed, well someone else I knew was staying there the next day, said the elevator broke down again. He also said he would charge me half for the hotel bill, but I did not receive half. I wanted the whole thing reimbursed for all these issues. We used to live down there and needed a nice trip. Needless to say, the moment we arrived, could not find any handicap parking, only to be told, "oh there is a parking lot about 2 blocks over". Seriously...for a handicap Veteran. The so called break that we both needed, was not happening and we were disgusted by the whole hotel.

Convenient We had a partial ocean view however there was a restaurant with outdoor seating right beneath our balcony which was opened from 10 in the morning to 11 at night. The lock on our balcony door was broken. Our refrigerator did not work so they brought a new one to our room.

Place was in shambles. My room had holes in the walls. There was air coming in through the front door so the weatherstripping was bad. Check in with the problem they didn’t have my room ready till about 4:20. Check out was unpleasant. Great location, good restaurants, right next-door to the hotel, beachfront access was nice. Parking sucked! If you didn’t get a parking spot underneath the hotel, you had to park in another lot, which was a bit of a walk.

We chose a room with a balcony facing the main road. We sat outside and enjoyed the view of people watching. I was pleasantly surprised by how clean everything was, considering it was a beachfront hotel. The walk to the beach was a short distance.
