Family trip

First off, this is an older hotel that is in need of a renovation so go in with that in mind. With that being said, the rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff is very nice. What you can't beat about this hotel is the location. The beach access and the little bar on the beach is great! They even had a DJ out in the evenings. We will stay again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
This property was unfit to stay. Our room had standing water, strong mold smell, dilapidated walls and ceiling, and a totally worn out and falling apart chair. They offered a second room that smelled like mildew, had similarly run down walls, floors and furniture. When we asked for a return they said Expedia had to return the money. Then Expedia said since we already checked in they could only reimburse half. The hotel staff told us we had to wait until Monday to call and ask the manager for a refund of the rest of our money. We had to purchase a different hotel entirely due to the uninhabitable state of this hotel. One of my worst experiences with a hotel offered through Expedia.
