Great hotel, doesn't have vacancies regularly so book ahead
Pros:

Great location and the outdoor pool was wonderful! The staff was engaging and fun to be around, as well as attentive.

Cons:

They keep the hotel and room temperatures warmer, which I understand but it's a little too warm for my liking. This was our second time at this property so I knew what the temperature would be like though.

Could be better, but not awful.
Pros:

The staff were nice and the room was mostly clean.

Cons:

The walls are thin, you can hear every room around and above you. The pipes are obviously old and the plumbing needs work. Toilet handle also came off. Most people didn't observe the quiet time rules which made having thin walls on every side almost unbearable at night.

Pros:

The proximity to the beach was great in addition to having a great pool area with showers attached.

Cons:

The breakfast was a little crowded and while the staff were incredible working in and out to refill and replace items it was hard to move in such a small space.
