Hotel was under renovation. I contacted Expedia to see if they could move my reservation to another hotel and they were unable to resolve my issue. Hotel refused to release my reservation or move me to another room since safety box wasn't working. Wifi didn't work. My balcony view was to a rental car carwash and taken apart car

It was the worst experience of my life in a hotel. I’m a night nurse and I work nights and sleep in the day. They didn’t disclose ahead of time that there was any type of construction that was jackhammer going off all day long it was filthy dirty outside of the hotel room the carpets the lounge the check up Whenever you needed something you had to call three or four times the office was in the garage. it just felt unsafe all around. It was broken glass down in the parking garage. There was no ice machines. They were broken.

Hotel that is going thru a major renovation. Rooms bright and clean but as business traveler how are you supposed to get any work done with a trendy micro desk and a chair some designer came up with who has never sat at a hotel desk and done hours of computer work?

Bad: The lobby, front and entrance,they are all under construction and I was never informed about this. The internet was very erratic and cuts off every 5 min. It is useless. Good: Staff are helpful and polite, the room was clean

Will be going back!

We stayed here for 2 nights and it was amazing! They are remodeling the property so there weren’t ice machines and parking was messy, but they did waive the parking fees to compensate for it. The free breakfast was surprisingly decent. Quick walk to the beach, good food around within walking distance. Quiet slow paced area. It was exactly the get away we were looking for without breaking the bank :)

Dirty, poorly-managed hotel

Poorly-managed mess of a hotel. Property is dirty, plumbing doesn’t work, rooms smell like cigarette smoke, and stairwells are blocked in a way that is both inconvenient and presumably unsafe.

No internet for me to work it was off and “they had to have a new router “. Nondisclosure on the major construction. I’m a night nurse worked all night came back to sleep zero sleep then had to run my private business form my phone. Barely any of my bars weee able since it’s a cement building my computer wouldn’t work since no internet. My eyes are swollen from having to use my phone and have a migraine. From lack of sleep. Just awful
