Room was ok but clearly built in 80’s. Some remodeling done but baseboards in bathroom need work to make it look clean. We had an ocean view but could barley see it out the sliding doors which were very dirty. The in room coffee maker did not work. Room price was very high ($750 for 2 nights)and room did not measure up to the cost. We had to leave after our first night due to a family emergency. Is there any way I could get a partial refund. The hotel said they woul like to help but since I booked with you they couldn’t.

Inside the room looked fairly new/clean but the carpet felt sticky on bare feet. The door was old and gross. The property felt outdated. The location is great and the views were very nice though.
