Pros:

Location

Cons:

This was the worst hotel experience of my life. The furniture was old, worn out, and damaged. The room was extremely dirty and had a terrible odor. The microwave was in horrible condition, with holes inside, and the smell coming from it was so disgusting that it nearly made me vomit. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Place has potential but needs a major upgrade.
Pros:

Location, close to the beach. Front desk staff was nice.

Cons:

The rooms were dark, walls were dirty with paint chipping away. The bathroom had rust and you can smell the humidity in the room. Beds made too much noise just to get on. You can hear the people next door when in the shower or flushing the toilet. No ventilation in the 2nd room.
