Our first room looked outdated and the a/c didn't work, but after going to the front desk we were assigned another room and it was nice and comfy. After 2 nights the a/c was noisy, but still was cold. Great location near the beach. Would stay again.

This was the smallest hotel room I have EVER been in. The only place big enough to open your luggage was on the bed. There were no amenities - terrible experience.

This was a very poor experience. I paid for a suit that was advertised to have balcony access. I quickly learned, upon my arrival, that there would be no balcony access. The door were taped up, as they were utlizing an air unit, pulling in air from outside? Because the room’s thermostat was broken. I alerted Expedia, requesting a refund, as I paid for accommodations, i clearly did not recieve, but they declined. Additionally, I tried to contact hotel multiple times, ahead of my arrival, and the phone number on file, was never answered once. I would not stay here again, and very disappointed in Expedia’s lack of willingness to help resolve this.

We couldn't check in when we arrived and staff was not friendly. When we checked in later, there was no one to help with luggage, including on departure. They did not answer their phone, including for accessible people. There was no heat and had to ask for blankets twice. Floors, furniture and bed had scratches and fabric missing, carbon monoxide detector hanging from ceiling.
