Breakfast was almost nonexistent! We asked on the second day to get more hair conditioner because the container was empty. We never got a refill. Our bed was not made every other day. Front desk people were great. I hate that the rooms are so small that you can’t even get the luggage cart into the room to unload. There were paper wrappers beside the bed that was not cleaned up from the people before us.

Economy Hotel.Painted Pig but clean.

This is a budget hotel. I didn’t know that when I booked because the reviews were so great. But it’s no where near a 3 or 4 star. This is a REALLY nice 2 star hotel. Close to the beach. Rooms are average but very clean. Beds are very comfortable. Bath towels were yellow - off white didn’t look clean. The staff was not friendly. I checked in late and the lady was in her car smoking. Someone was smoking in their room and the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night and we all had to evacuate. You can tell this used to be another hotel and they dressed it up with new paint. You can see where the old fixtures were. They definitely didn’t do a full remodel. Floors are thin and you can hear people walking and talking above you. Proximity to the beach was great! And it was clean enough for a 2 night stay. But I won’t ever stay at a Spark again!

Arrived well after 4pm check in time and only one room was ready, would have been nice for a “I’m sorry for the inconvenience” but the desk clerk clearly didn’t care. Waited over an hour, back to the desk and the manager seemed surprised that we were not checked in. Overall rooms extremely clean, hotel clean. Very small rooms but expected with price, breakfast was disappointing only cereal and bagels but the all day coffee bar was great! Would stay again!!
