Several comments about old, small rooms, filthy balconies, broken toilets and poor beds; mixed with occasional praise for room size but overall below average.

Pools, lazy river and family-friendly facilities were repeatedly highlighted and enjoyed; some operational issues (elevator, outside guests accessing waterpark) noted but amenities are a strong point.

Pros:

Able to walk right out to beach and short drives to restaurants.

Cons:

Cleanliness of room. Queen beds were extremely hard. Nothing to sit on in room accept for two hard table chairs. Black mold above shower along ceiling. Caulking around tub and sink was poorly applied. Finally, there were a lot of inconsiderate guests at the pool and beach.

It was a great location and parking was plentiful. However everything else was mediocre, dingy and dirty.
Pros:

It was big, meaning no one ever came to check on us give us new towels, sheets, toiletries. The look had not been mopped in a LONG time feel were filthy when you walked barefoot. The bath mat/towel that you put outside the tub so you don't slip was originally white, however turned brown after a round of showers since the floor was so dirty.

Cons:

There was no phone in the room to call the office/front desk. Just way too big of a facility for them to check all the rooms regularly.

Definitely want a refund. Don’t waste your time
Pros:

Beachfront

Cons:

Ann at the front desk was rude as hell. The room was filthy. There were chips and crackers in a pot. Nothing to wash dishes with. Roaches in the stairwell. Tv was terrible. It glitched all day. Definitely will not EVER stay here again and I pray people actually read the comments. We left early because the place was terrible.
