This property is filthy! There are roaches in the bathrooms, the sheets were not clean and nothing has been dusted in days!! When I alerted the front desk about the dirty sheets, they just dropped some off. No offer to remake the beds or anything. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AT THIS LOCATION! The only redeeming quality is that it is on the beach.

Left disappointed

The hotel is aged and I understand the where there is water there are bugs, smells and moisture damage. But roaches, rusty refrigerator, and a room that smells like a mens restroom is not what I expected. Our room did not have any wash clothes so I had to ask for them. Other members of our group in different rooms found mold and mildew as well as insects. The breakfast was dry foods only, i expected a little more for the price. Needless to say I will not stay at this hotel again.

Safety

The doors would not lock properly when leaving the room very unsafe for us. Had to put a chair behind door when sleeping. Mold was present behind bathroom floor. Sheets were beige instead of white, not really clean.

The room was nice overall. There was no housekeeping during stay. So we had to go to front desk to fetch our own towels. The pools were nice but there were no bathroom for the pools. So imagine where most the people peed.
