I was not impressed with the sanitary conditions within the hotel. I was also locked out of my room prior to checkout time and I had to go downstairs three times to finally have staff come up with me and open the door. Overall the location was desirable, but change in management or owner has depreciated service expectations.

If you're looking for an affordable Hotel on Ocean Drive, this is the place. The hotel is just okay. Requires major updates, the elevator is out of service and you may have to walkup 5 flights up. The rooms are out of date and there are no dresser drawers.

Hotel is in a great location. They have beach chairs and towels readily available at no extra cost. Right across from the beach. Only complaint is the elevator is broken and walking up 4 flights of stairs was not that fun, especially in heels. Other than that my stay was great and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Would come back again!
