Room is huge and for the price u can’t get anything that fits like at least ten people there but it’s not very clean but if I needed a room in another time in a hurry for one night I would stay there again
I had a beautiful ocean view, I enjoyed sitting on the balcony and just watching the waves. My only issue was the shower/tub...it has AMAZING water pressure but the drainage is soooooo slow that within 10 minutes of your shower, you are standing in at least 5 inches of water. The room is dated- so what, you can see what humidity does to the metal of the doors, window, ECT..-doesn't bother me!! I was there for Rockville, sleep and a small beach day. The place is just perfect and the staff at the front desk are so nice!! I will definitely come back here next year 🤘🤘
Stayed on the 3rd floor with balcony and nice view of the ocean. The room was comfortable and clean. The staff is super friendly. I was in town for welcome to Rockville! And the price and view of the ocean made it worth the stay.
Hotel just reopened and my room had clean bedding but door wouldnt lock easy , room wasnt clean carpet, entrance and bathroom tile filthy. Tv wasnt sent up to network .didnt feel safe with door problem Found another hotel in new syrmna next day
