Pros:

The room was clean

Cons:

The bathroom smelled like smoke.

The hot tub was not working and there were no attempts to work on it.

The pool hours only being for adults after 9 was ridiculous. We were there with 17 year old for a track event and weren't done until 8 most days and they couldn't even use the facility when we got home. So the pool and hot tub was useless

Pros:

The location was perfect

Cons:

I requested an oceanview room, and we were on the back side of the hotel near the interstate, and it was very noisy at night.
The bathroom shower dripped ALL Day and Night!!
