I gave three stars because the hotel itself was dirty and not properly stocked with essential items. There was dirt around the bed and mold in the shower. There were also no towels left in the hotel room only face towels. When I asked for A towel it seemed as though there were none around the staff had to run around and find someone with a clean towel.

So I had booked two rooms for March 23… When checking in for room 119 for my sister we had to wait hour and half for us to check in..with us there were other five people waiting to be helped as there was no one at the front desk…I have spoke to manager Jay Patel and had requested full refund for both the rooms…119 and 121. He said he will do whatever he can. This has never happened to before. The cocking on the shower is all broken and brought it to management attention. Please I need full refund on both the rooms that I booked thru Expedia. Thanks Jayana Mulukala

I would definitely book again for the good service and complimentary self serve breakfast. The shower was nice and hot as well as great water pressure. The room was fairly clean. I think the floors could be cleaner. The room was nice and big. They had lots of pillows for the king bed too. Bed looked clean. Room smelled good upon walking in. Clean fridge. Lots of outlets. My complaints are that I can hear people showering from upstairs which was very loud every time. First night there I was woken up by men yelling and revving their car at 5am. Then showering noise at 6am and 8am. Our shower also had empty and broken shampoo/conditioner dispensers. We also had no hand soap when arrived. Not a huge deal but the toilet seats are really small.

Overall it’s “okay” considering you’re a short walk to the ocean. My room was very dark and it didn’t have fixed lighting only lamps and such, making my morning routine a little difficult. The mirror light was not working and they had this lamp but it was very dim lighting.
