Terrible "motel" room was not clean, there was bugs and hair on the floor and behind the beds. The pictures on the the walls were cut with a blade or something else. The bath top, sink and floor bathroom got stains. The tv worked only when maintenance person came but used his remote control. There was dog poop on the walkways. I have pictures that I can send you.

Pluses and Minuses
The Hotel check in location (lobby) was very nice. Very nice. Our room was visually nice. Great balcony with great view of ocean and beach. Then, we took our shoes off. There was a layer of sand on the floor. There happened to be a broom and dustpan in the corner and I swept the room. Things were OK after that, room wise. View was great, the location was great, the "Boardwalk" was cool. People were nice. Then the elevator broke down. It wasn't working at about 4:00pm on Thursday and still wasn't working Friday morning when we checked out. I counted 90 rooms affected by the broken elevator. Pluses and Minuses.

Family Vacation
I was really worried when I saw all of the reviews but I decided to go ahead and stay. We did not have the bad experience some of the others had. It was not the Ritz but our room was clean and the view was beautiful! The staff was friendly. We did not encounter any rude people at all. They brought clean towels everyday. We had breakfast at the food court. No complaints there. It is true about the futon bunk beds. The top one was fine but the bottom one was too hard. I also think they could use more lighting at the pool (behind the tides). The elevator was broken part of the time. Overall we had a good stay.

I’m usually not one to write negative things about hotels/condos but, I’m doing this for others so no one ruins vacation time. The property is not maintained at all. The entire facility needs paint and serious caulk work everywhere. There are roaches in the rooms and many around the property. The rooms need painting and the outlets need to be properly fixed to the walls and be in working order. We had mold on the ceiling after there was a 2 point cleanliness expectation done before we were able to check-in. The facility is just getting by. There is no management or maintenance anywhere in sight. Please do not book here because it’s cheaper than other hotels/condos. This could be a great property on the beach if it was managed well.
