This hotel was disgusting! Mold on the lamp shades, pubic hair on the toilet tank, dirty floors, busted cabinet hardware, spray painted refrigerator! We found out the day before we left that our room had been “remodeled “

Check in but room is not ready yet. Transfer to different room number but it seems like they just sprayed air freshener and didn't clean it. Whole room smells specially the bathroom. Asked for bath towels but told me there's no clean one yet and they will just take it to our room but they did not. There's a kitchen but nothing to used for cooking aside from one pan that is very nasty. No sponge and dish soap. Door Lock is broken it takes effort to lock it. One thing I noticed for the last 3 times of staying here is they will always tell Anyways, front desk staff is nice.

At least it was on the beach…

There were extra charges that were not listed prior to booking. We could not enjoy sitting on our balcony or leaving the balcony door open from the constant aroma of marijuana being smoked by guests and staff alike. Roaches and bedbugs were running amuck. The stove and microwave did not work. No hot water in the kitchen sink. The elevators did not work half of the time. The floors were filthy and left our feet black when walking barefoot. On several occasions, workers from the third floor renovation were blocking the stairs and were rude and extremely lewd. Overall, the only good thing about the hotel was the location to the beach.

The staff at the beachcomber was excellent. They went out of their way to make you feel welcomed. The property itself had nice sized rooms and was clean. However, the coffee pot did not work and there was no remote for the TV. The bathroom door did not shut or lock. The few things that were wrong with the room would not deter me from staying there again.
