This weathered resort has seen better days, but that shouldn’t deter you from coming and spending a short weekend. You can tell the recently closed-down casino (closed due to local laws) was once a source of revenue that would fix the peeling paint job on the lawn chairs, restain the nicked wooden built-ins in the rooms, and recalibrate the elevator’s approach to the 6th floor so that people didn’t have to step up to exit the historical box. Sure, there is a certain charm in a historic hotel and building, one where you’re welcomed warmly by the staff upon check in and a pool attendant ensures you have plenty of towels as you hop in and out of the pool. They say that details matter, though, and the main reason for my lackluster rating of this resort was due to the shortcomings in the details: a cup, long voided or its refreshment and full of hungry ants, left on a lobby table for an entire afternoon uncleared, the lobby bathrooms left unclean, empty of toilet paper and hand soap, and an inaccessible taxi system where the hotel has to pull teeth to get taxi drivers to come and pick you up (and then proceed to overcharge you as a foreigner). That said, you’re right in the beach poolside, so that proximity might make the difference for you, however I would say this was overall a lackluster 3-star hotel experience in a decaying 4/5- star skeleton of an establishment.
