Monica, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Got the room last minute for $360 which was a great deal for the beach, but I honestly didn’t realize that the room was going to be worse than a motel six room. I would’ve opted to not do it. I expected it not to be an upgraded room, but I did not expect it to be what it was.

Nice, romantic location.

Had a very enjoyable stay.
Diana, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

For the price paid the location was worth it. The room not so much. There was no mini fridge to keep a water bottle cold and they didn’t even have “do not disturb” door tags. They charge an additional $75 for hotel fees, but you have to either pay for valet parking or set an alarm to pay $8 every 2 hours from 8am-6pm for the lot near by.

Fantastic location. Room was fine. Building definitely needs some tlc. Staff was great. Comforters were dirty, continental breakfast wasnt amazing. A bunch of the snacks were expired. It was still a cool place. Hot pool was nice at this time of the year.
