Top Old Central Hotel Reviews

Beachfront Palms Resort an Ascend Collection Hotel

4/10 Poor

"Elevator smelled like oil really bad. Pictures make it seem like a nice hotel but much different when you get there. They are putting rock on the outside but it still needs lots of work inside. They need to lower the cost so people don’t think their getting a run for their money."
